'EXTREMELY RARE' FARSIDE CME: Something big just happened on the farside of the sun. During the early hours of March 13th, SOHO coronagraphs recorded a farside halo CME apparently leaving the sun faster than 3000 km/s:  Note: The bright object at 4 o'clock is Mercury: diagram Because of its extreme speed, this CME may be classified as "extremely rare," a fast-mover that occurs only once every decade or so. A NASA model of the event shows the CME heading almost directly away from Earth. Good thing! Although the CME is not Earth-directed, it has nevertheless touched our planet. See all the snowy dots and streaks in the coronagraph movie above? Those are energetic particles accelerated by shock waves in the CME. They create short-lived luminous speckles when they hit SOHO's digital camera. NOAA's GOES-16 satellite has detected the particles reaching Earth--all from the CME's backside. Imagine what a frontside blast would have been like! Earth's magnetic field is funneling the particles toward the poles where a type of radio blackout is underway--a polar cap absorption (PCA) event:  Note the red areas. Airplanes flying over these regions may find that their shortwave radios won't work due to the ionizing effect of infalling protons. This PCA could persist for a day or more. You can monitor its progress here. Solar flare alerts: SMS Text. |

I don’t understand it like all of you do, as I don’t really know what I’m looking at? But that looks huge!!! Thanks Eve |

p.s. I began another thread before this one on the current radiation storm which is a component of this flare. I started a new thread not realizing at first the radiation storm is because of this farside CME in this thread. I must say once I realized and how it was connected to the frequencies I was hearing I remembered the words I received and posted on dreams regarding sun, blood, seal thus I wonder and watch. |

see movie with graph at link Conversation SpaceWeatherLive @_SpaceWeather_ Today's minor S1 solar radiation storm was caused by this major far side coronal mass ejection. The plasma cloud is not aimed at Earth but solar protons did manage to reach our planet thanks to the Parker Spiral. https://twitter.com/i/status/1635341073160478723 |

Mystery Farside Blast & Earth-Directed Storms Launch | Solar Storm Forecast: 14 March 2023 Our Sun gets busy this week launching multiple solar storms, some of which are Earth-directed and one massive storm that is farsided. The first of the Earth-directed storms has just arrived (a bit earlier than forecasted) and aurora photographers at high latitudes are already getting a good show. However, the impact thus far is on the mild side so aurora photographers at mid-latitudes might have to wait a bit to see if things intensify with the second solar storm expected to arrive on the 15th. Amateur radio operators and GPS users at mid-latitudes should be enjoying a break from the big radio blackouts we had last week, but the massive farside blast has launched a radiation storm that we are feeling here at Earth. This means HF communication and GPS navigation is being affected over the poles. Pilots, air crew, and high-risk passengers should take into consideration the higher radiation doses right now and plan their routes accordingly. Luckily the radiation storm is only at an S1-minor level and things should return to normal within the next 48 hours. Learn details of the mystery farside blast, see when the Earth-directed solar storms will arrive and when to expect aurora, and find out what else our Sun has in store. presentation 13minutes 40 seconds. |

CME IMPACT: A CME just hit Earth's magnetic field (March 15 @ 0415 UT), sparking a G1-class geomagnetic storm. Currently, conditions favor the development of even stronger G2-class storms in the hours ahead. High- latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras. |

The Geospace Magnetosphere Movies display 2d cut planes of Earth's magnetosphere from the Geospace model output for three different plasma parameters (velocity, density, and pressure). For each plasma parameter, equatorial (x-y plane) and noon-midnight magnetic meridian (x-z plane) cut planes are plotted in GSM coordinates. The animations show the model forecast, where the lead time depends on the solar wind speed, as well as the previous two hours for context. 2D cut planes of the magnetosphere are useful for providing a large-scale, global context of activity in the near- Earth environment. These plots assist forecasters in developing situational awareness and are useful for assessing the validity of the Geospace model. |

When I look at this CME, I get this initiative feeling as if the sun was communicating and “sending “ a message? If that makes a weird kind of sense? I don’t know how to explain it. |
