Solar flare Activity 13 May 2013
Another major X-Class solar
flare, this time peaking at X2.8 was observed at 16:05 UTC. Another
Strong Radio Blackout resulted on the sunlit side of Earth. The source
is again the active region rotating into view off the east limb. The
latest event generated a Coronal Mass Ejection that looks to be directed
mostly towards the east and away from Earth. The solar rotation will
continue to carry the Sunspot into a more direct Earth view this week.
