Two Major X-Class Solar Flares | August 5, 2024

Another X-Flare, a Major X1.7 solar Flare was reported from Active Region 13767 at 13:40 UTC. Associated with this event was a Type II radio emission with an estimated velocity of 925 km/s. A coronal mass ejection (CME) associated with the X1.7 is responsible for a rise in particle levels that remains below the (S1) radiation storm threshold. The CME itself is directed well away from our planet. Shortly after the main event an X1.1 solar flare was unleashed around Active Region 13780 and was also responsible for a weak coronal mass ejection (CME) that appears to be headed to the east and away from Earth.
