Solar activity this morning is currently at low levels with minor C-Class solar flares being observed around newly reassigned region 2192. The cluster of returning active regions, the source of a strong farsided eruption on October 14th, continues to turn back into view off the east limb. Although not yet in a great viewing position, the cluster of sunspots is likely a threat for additional M-Class solar flares. All other visible regions were unremarkable. A faint halo coronal mass ejection (CME) became visible this morning in the latest LASCO coronagraph imagery, but so far appears to have originated from the farside of the sun. More updates on this if necessary.

(AA Newsroom) Here is an updated look at the visible solar disk on Friday. Solar activity during the past 24 hours reached high levels. Departing region 2172 produced an M1.5 solar flare at 17:40 UTC. This was followed up by a moderately strong M7.3 event at 19:01 UTC around departed region 2173 off the southwest limb. The event (M7.3) was associated with Type II and IV radio emissions, along with a coronal mass ejection (CME) that was directed to the west and away from Earth. Additional flares of the minor variety, including a C9.0 at 06:48 UTC Friday morning, continue to be observed as the active regions move further behind the west limb. Future eruptions around 2172 and 2173 will be directed away from our planet. Elsewhere, region 2178 located near center disk, now becomes the largest visible Earth facing region and is currently producing low level C-Flares. A magnetic region currently containing one small sunspot, rotated into view off the southeast limb. It was the source of a minor eruption beginning at 03:00 UTC, but does not appear to contain a noteworthy CME. All other visible regions are currently stable.

Two Youtubers, Mark Dice and J7409, have posted videos about alternative theories as to where and how EBOLA has arrived to Earth, spreading around the world, either from Space or as a result of climate change.

Good morning and welcome to the month of October. Here is an updated look at the visible solar disk on Wednesday. Solar activity remains low. Decaying region 2175 is now set to rotate onto the west limb and out of direct Earth view. Regions 2172 and 2173, also currently in a gradual decay trend, have been producing minor C-Flares as they approach the west limb.

All other visible regions, including 2177 and 2178, remain stable. An isolated M-Flare will be a possibility during the next 24 hours. A coronal mass ejection (CME) is visible this morning following an eruption beyond the southeast limb. It is not Earth directed and should have no impact on our geomagnetic field.
