Strong solar flare reaching M5.0 erupted from Region 1745 - CME released
Posted by Adonai on in category Solar activity
A strong solar flare reaching M5.0 erupted on May 22, 2013 from Beta classified Region 1745 located on the western limb of the Sun.
The event started at 12:30, peaked at 13:38 UTC and ended at 14:26.
Associated with the event was a Type II and Type IV Radio Emission indicating a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is associated with a flare event. This CME could have an Earth directed component. A 10 cm radio burst was also associated according to report from SWPC. This can be indicative of significant radio noise in association with a solar flare. This noise is generally short-lived but can cause interference for sensitive receivers including radar, GPS, and satellite communications.
NOAA SWPC forecasters estimated 50% chance for an M-class event, and 20% for an X-class.
