Wow, 2 X Flares in 2 days - Constant non stop C Flares and a M flare right after the X flare

UPDATE 9/25/11 - 11 M Class Flares in 24 hours



I have never seen the chart like this.  The C flares are constant, one after another.  Two X flares within 2 days and a M Flare that just happened after the X flare today.





It is coming from the sun spot 1302 that is just coming around the corner and starting to face Earth.



You can watch what is happening at Space Weather.

I normally put information about our Magnetosphere but the site has been down since 9/22/11 which is right before we began getting hit from all the huge flares that began happening on 9/19/11. 

The way the flares have been ongoing non stop, I believe the Earth is getting impacted non stop.

From Spaceweather about Sun Spot 1302

Each of the dark cores in this snapshot from the Solar Dynamics Observatory is larger than Earth, and the entire active region stretches more than 100,000 km from end to end. The sunspot's magnetic field is crackling with sub-X-class flares that could grow into a larger eruption as the sunspot continues to turn toward Earth.
