28 March 2025: X1.1 Flare

 

This unexpected X-class flare has generated a lot of excitement! Although it came in at only X1.1, the fact that it's been quiet (so far) this year compared with the extreme Solar activity of 2024 made this quite a big thing.

This relatively modest flare produced what looks like a humongous CME:

It does seem like more X-class flares are expected in the coming days.

 

Namarie! 💖

PS. Prayers for all affected by the Sagaing earthquake 🙏
