Departing Region 1520 now located on the western limb is going out with a bang. A Strong Solar Flare measuring M7.7 peaked at 05:58 UTC Thursday morning (7/19/2012). Type II and Type IV Sweep Frequency Events resulted and a 10cm Radio Burst (TenFlare) lasting 44 minutes was recorded. Another Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) was produced, but because of the Sunspots location, the plasma cloud should be directed away from Earth.
