X1.2 solar flare

It is July 14th and that calls for fireworks. We congratulate our French friends with their national holiday, Bastille Day, and so does our Sun.

Sunspot region 3738 produced an impulsive X1.2 solar flare (R3-strong) at 02:34 UTC to celebrate a memorable day for many of our French speaking visitors. The solar flare was not eruptive and we expect continuing calm geomagnetic conditions in the foreseeable future. Good timing for us as we enjoy a well deserved break and we hope all of our northern hemisphere visitors will do the same and enjoy a great summer break.
