The anticipated sunspot region 1126-1127 which had produced a borderline M class Solar Flare few days ago has now produced a M2 class flare. On June 7th at 0641UT this solar flare was released with lots of Coronal Mass Ejection happened at the time of erruption,most of the CME fell back on the Surface of the Sun due to Sun's gravity where the Escape Velocity 617.5km/sec is there.
The Coronal Mass Ejection cloud has velocity of more than 1100km/sec but some cloud had velocity less than Sun's Escape Velocity so it was attracted back!
This eruption also sent a stream of charged particles ( Protons mostly) towards the Earth which led to a S1 Solar Radiation Storm.
Forecast-
The Coronal Mass Ejection is heading towards the Earth as depicted by the STEREO BEACON DATA. The CME shall give a Glancing Blow and expected to reach by tomorrow ( June 9)
High Latitude observers are going to get an opportunity to witness Active Geomagnetic Storming conditions with Auroras likely during the period
