30 March 2026: X1.4 Solar Flare

SpaceWeather

This X1.4 went on for almost an hour, producing that prolonged display of Solar Light ~ 3:47 to 4:44 UTC (that triple 4!):

Here's the resultant CME:

That's expected to reach us shortly:


That's one fast-moving CME:

4 February 2026: X4.2 Flare


Here comes an X4.2 ~ no.6 in the month of February and the second X-flare within 24 hours.

3 February 2026: X1.5 Flare

Nasa/SDO

This is the FIFTH X-class Solar flare since February started three days ago.

 

From the video clip above, there seems to be a lot going on for an X1.5.

2 February 2026: X8.11, X2.8 & X1.65 (?)

Laboratory of Solar Astronomy, SRI RAS

Quadruple YIKES!
That's FOUR X-class flares within a 24-hour timeframe, with the hefty X8.11 being the third strongest since 2017 (after X9 on 3 October 2024 and X9 on 14 May 2024, as per Laboratory of Solar Astronomy, SRI RAS).

I had seen the X8.11 & X2.8 reported this morning, so when I finally was able to sit down to document it, a new one just triggered! This is so recent that I can't find a  value for it but I think it could be X1.65, according to this chart when I hovered over what I think is its peak:

This was the after-effect:

What a start to February!

X1.04: 1 February 2026

SpaceWeatherLive

Just a quick update to document this X1.04 flare.

It was totally unexpected:

SpaceWeather

Predictions about Solar activity have largely been inaccurate in the past few months, with the biggest surprise possibly being the massive Sunspot complex 4294 & 4296 that stayed quiet throughout the time frame that it was facing Earth. 

Very interesting Solar behaviour indeed.

X1.9 Solar Flare & SR ~ 18 January 2026

SpaceWeather

The first X-flare of 2026! The firepower of this X1.9 Solar Flare was augmented by the duration of its illumination, which was almost 4 hours as the graph below tells us:

  ....producing this full halo fast-moving CME:

Strong solar storms are expected in a few days' time:

We have another massive coronal hole facing Earth:

Meanwhile, what's happening with the SR readings?

Space Observing System
 

Something else I will mention, and it could be related or totally have nothing to do with the current Solar activity but I'm documenting for future reference ~ 48 hours or so prior to this X-class flare, there were so many micro-shifts occurring. There is no doubt of several Timeline stuff taking place. I've even felt Time stalling for a moment, then surging forwards. I distinctly feel "adjustments" being made.

For those old enough to remember, it's like carefully turning the radio dial to get the clearest reception of a specific station ~ teensy shifts counter-clockwise or clockwise, usually to and fro repeatedly, until we get the frequency that delivers the sharpest transmission. I feel that is what's happening.

X1.1 ~ 8 December 2025

 

This followed the strong M8.1 which occurred in the late hours of 6 November 2025. The clip below shows the X1.1:

X-2.0 Flare ~ 1 December 2025

SpaceWeather

In my previous post (just yesterday), I mentioned that the "entire energetic event" wasn't over yet (referring to the extreme Solar activity in early November) but I wasn't in any way expecting it to resume today. Guess what happened? πŸ˜„

What a start to the month! It was an X2.0:

....and this is the related CME:

Yikes.

SpaceWeather reports that this X-class flare could be the first of many, please read details at their site.

X4.05 & Solar Activity ~ 14 November 2025

SpaceWeatherLive

* Updated 15 November 2025: Added CME clip *

Well, we knew our Sun wasn't quite done yet πŸ˜… That's an X4.05, the sixth X-class flare since 4 November 2025. 

 

No CME data yet, I will update when available. The Solar storm has cleared up so we will be able to get clear images. (Update: See CME clip at bottom of post)

We had almost 2 days of strong geomagnetic storms:


 ....with extremely high Solar wind speeds:

There are nearly off-the-charts readings for Solar wind density and temperatures as well, please view them here.

 

So....how's everyone doing? πŸ˜…

Update 15 November 2025:

Space.com

Severe Solar storms like the ones we had with the recent X5.16 are not expected as this CME wasn't directly Earth-facing. Please head over to Space.com for the article.

Posting another clip of the X5.16 flare.

Look at the magnitude of that X5.16! Small wonder then that strong showers of Solar particles have been swarming satellites post-flare:

This was the CME that birthed from the X5.16:

And since then until at this time of writing, this is what is showing:

SpaceWeather reports an on-going Ground Level Event:

A 'GROUND LEVEL EVENT' IS UNDERWAY: Yesterday's X5-class solar flare from sunspot 4274 hurled a fusillade of energetic protons toward Earth. Some of the particles are so powerful, they are penetrating the atmosphere all the way to the ground. "This is a very significant event," says Professor Clive Dyer of the Surrey Space Centre. "Neutron monitors around the world are detecting it."  

Please read the article at their site here.

 

I added this afterthought to Part 1:

This makes it five X-class flares since 4 November 2025. I can't help but notice that we've not had any X-class flares for months since 20 June 2025....then our Sun belches out five in a span of 8 days....soon after its rendezvous with 3I/Atlas on Perihelion 29 October 2025.

X5.16 ~ 11 November 2025: Part 1

Yikes. An X5.16 😯  This just occurred so I can't find much else, but I do hope there will be a video of this flare, it's a strong one ~ the strongest since 31 October 2024 (X2.03). And look at the time-stamp....it's 11-11 at one hour short of 11:00am.

This makes it five X-class flares since 4 November 2025. I can't help but notice that we've not had any X-class flares for months since 20 June 2025....then our Sun belches out five in a span of 8 days....soon after its rendezvous with 3I/Atlas on Perihelion 29 October 2025.

I believe we'll get quite a bit more data on this soon.

X1.21 Flare @10 November 2025


We just had another X-class flare, X1.21 this time. That makes this the fourth one in less than a week.

I can't find any resources at this time since it only occurred less than a couple of hours ago, based on the above chart. Once I see something relevant, I will update here. Meanwhile, I think this could be the X-flare:

Solar Activity & X-Class Flares ~ 4 & 5 November 2025

SpaceWeather

Ooooh....after intently focussing on other Planets for more than 4 months, our Sun has turned its attention to Earth. We had two X-class flares in a row yesterday 4 November and there was an M-7.4 flare just now, chart shown below:


The clip above shows the two X-class flares ~ X1.8 & X1.1. Based on the assumption that there were several energetic interactions with 3I/Atlas with all those CMEs hurled towards it, these flares would certainly carry some interesting frequencies and Cosmic codes.

For more details about the X-class flares, please visit SpaceWeather.

SpaceWeather also reports that we would be expecting some Earth-facing CMEs soon, bearing in mind that our Sun has been spewing colossal non-Earth-facing CMEs daily over the past weeks.

Here are two recent ones:

What we may expect around the 8th:

X1.9 Flare: 20 June 2025


That came in at X1.9....

SpaceWeather explains that there wasn't an associated CME but it did trigger a filament, and that might produce a CME:
