Class M2 8 Flare & Geomagnetic Storm in Progress HD

  
Best viewed with window expanded.
The American government is still in lock down but the sun waits for no one. And aren't we delighted the sun has a mind of her own.
At long last... a noteworthy solar flare to report. A moderate eruption measuring M2.8 was just detected around sunspot complex 1864-1865 in the southeast quadrant. SDO/EVE captures the flare which peaked at 01:48 UTC early Wednesday morning. The active regions are not yet in the best postion for Earth directed explosions, however I will provide further updates if a CME is associated.
Wish you all a great week and thank you for watching :)
