Solar alert




Issued on 2024 Feb 16 0721 UTC



An X2.5 flare has registered in GOES 16 data today with peak time 06:53 UTC. As more information becomes available a second PRESTO might be issued.

Issued on 2024 Feb 16 0926 UTC



A partial halo coronal mass ejection (CME) was observed in LASCO/C2 coronagraph data from 01:36 UTC on February 16th. The CME is directed primarily to the South from the Earth's perspective. The analysis indicated that the source of the CME was on the far side of the Sun. Therefore, no impact on the solar wind condition near Earth is expected.
