Solar activity surges

Solar activity is surging. Three large sunspots have materialized and at least one of them harbors energy for strong solar flares.

An M2-class eruption on March 25th hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) into space and emitted radio bursts audible in shortwave receivers on Earth.

NOAA forecasters estimate a 50% chance of more M-flares during the next 24 hours.
