X 6.9 Solar flare from AR 1263.. The biggest of So 24

SEVERE SOLARWX CONDEMNS THE LATE POST ON SUCH A HISTORICAL EVENT.

THE SUNSPOT AR 1263 HAS HURLED THE BIGGEST SOLAR FLARE OF SOLAR CYCLE 24 - X 6.9 SOLAR FLARE AT 0805Z,AUGUST 9 2011.


SUNSPOT 1263 AS WAS MENTIONED IN PREVIOUS FEW POSTS HAD SYMMETRICAL MAGNETIC FIELD AS AGAINST THAT OF AR 1261 WHICH DIDNT PRODUCE ANY X CLASS FLARE.
SEVRE SOLARWX HAS GATHERED SUFFICIENT PROOF NOW TO PRESENT A CONFIRMED REPORT ON THE SUNSPOTS WHICH PRODUCE MAXIMUM SOLAR FLARES

THE FLARE ALSO SENT TREMENDOUS X RAYS TOWARDS EARTH CAUSING AN R3 RADIO BLACKOUT THAT DISRUPTED SIGNALS IN HF AND VLF ZONES!

Level Consequences X Ray-Flux Frequency

R3

Strong

HF Radio: Wide area blackout of HF radio communication, loss of radio contact for about an hour on sunlit side of Earth.

Navigation: Low-frequency navigation signals degraded for about an hour.

(10-4)

175 per cycle

THE FLARE HAS ALSO PRODUCED STRONG CORONAL MASS EJECTION BUT AS THE SUNSPOT WAS AWAY FROM GEO-EFFECTIVE SIDE OF THE EARTH, THE CME IS NOT EARTH DIRECTED.

DATAS FROM THE SPACE WEATHER LAB ALSO CONFIRM THIS FACT.

HOWEVER THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT SOME SQUARED CME SHALL BE HEADING TOWARDS THE EARTH BUT SEVERE SOLARWX DOESN'T ENCOURAGE THIS NEWS NOW

.IF SUCH CME HAD BEEN EARTH DIRECTED THEN THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN ATLEAST A G4 GEOMAGENTIC STORM.. THE SUNSPOT MISSED IT BY JUST FEW DAYS!!!!


ALL THE THREE X CLASS FLARES IN THE SOLAR CYCLE - 24 HAS PROVED THAT THE THEORY PUT FORTH BY SEVERE SOLARWX IN CLASSIFYING THOSE SUNSPOTS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING STRONG FLARES ( HIGH END M TO X CLASS) IS CORRECT

SO, SEVERE SOLARWX SHALL PUT FORTH A MODIFIED PAPER IN CONTINUATION TO THIS PAPER

Editors Note-

It has become necessary to inform the people about The Sun and its effects after CME,Flares.

In association to this, The Hitavada - Leading Newspaper of Central India offered an opportunity to me for publishing an article on the basics about the Sun.

The article as published in The Hitavada is posted above in the image form
