Solar Flares 6-hr max: C1 0507 UT Oct31 24-hr: C1 0507 UT Oct31 GOES X-ray Flux plot (updates every 5 minutes) http://www.swpc.noaa.gov Sunspot number: 56 6 active regions today. Region 11598 continued to decay while regions 11592,11602 remained stable. View from Sunspot region 11602: http://www.solarmonitor.org A small coronal hole (CH543) mostly in the northern hemisphere will likely rotate into an Earth facing position today. the southern part of CH543 is trans equatorial and became better defined on Oct.30. A recurrent coronal hole (CH544) in the southern hemisphere will likely be in an Earth facing position on November 1. Currently there are no sunspot regions actively flaring and X-ray output has flatlined for now.NOAA predicts solar activity for the 3 day forecast to be very low with only a chance for minor flares. Sky watchers around the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, witnessed something amazing: A complex network of luminous arcs and rings surrounded the afternoon sun. "I #39;ve never seen anything quite like it," says eyewitness Bill Cooke, head of NASA #39;s Meteoroid Environment Office. Solar physicist David Hathaway snapped this picture of the display: spaceweather.com The apparition might be connected to hurricane Sandy. The core of the storm swept well north of Alabama, but Sandy #39;s outer bands did pass over the area, apparently leaving behind a thin haze of ice crystals in cirrus clouds. Sunlight shining through the crystals produced an unusually rich ...From:MichelleHill711Views:306 10ratingsTime:00:09More inScience Technology
