Magnetic Activity off the Western Limb (Saturday) - SDO
Solar activity was high with the X-Class solar flare around Sunspot 1402 on Friday afternoon. Solar activity is now expected to be very low as 1402 rotated onto the western limb and is now out of direct Earth view. All remaining current visible regions are magnetically simple and remain stable.
The S2 Level Radiation Storm generated by yesterdays solar flare continues on Saturday, but is expected to slowly decrease during the day today.
