Rare Hybrid Solar Eclipse Countdown

✨ On April 20, parts of the Pacific and Indian Ocean regions will experience a rare type of event called a hybrid solar eclipse. The 2023 Solar Eclipse will be visible across Australia, but is best viewed at Ningaloo in Western Australia. Credit: ✨Sun activity: Today’s top news: G1 (minor) geomagnetic storming is predicted for today through April 20 and 21, 2023. The reason is two coronal mass ejections (CMEs) have set to reach Earth over today and tomorrow. That means … auroras! The first CME left the sun on April 15, and might arrive early today, April 19. Any geomagnetic disturbance will be extended through the rest of the day. The second CME was detected by GOES-16 SUVI imagery on April 16 (see animation below) and might arrive on April 20, with effects possibly continuing through April 21. NOAA is forecasting auroral displays for tonight and tomorrow night, with geomagnetic storms predicted up to G1 (minor). Good luck, aurora chasers! By the way, today is an eclipse day. It falls on April 19 in the Americas (but it’s not visible from here) and April 20 across the International Date Line. The eclipse will be visible in Australia, Timor-Leste and Indonesia. Get the full details here. Last 24 hours: Sun activity remains low. Between 11 UTC yesterday and 11 UTC today, our star produced a total of 16 C flares. The largest was a C4.8, blasted by AR3280. After being carried out of sight yesterday by the sun’s rotation, this active region is now located behind the sun’s southwest limb (edge). The explosion occurred at 15:29 UTC on April 18. AR3280 was the day’s leading producer with five C flares. The Earth-viewed side of our sun is currently populated with seven labeled sunspots. Most of the seven sunspots show decay. The active regions that yesterday showed a beta-gamma configuration – AR3281 and AR3282 – have reduced to beta. AR3282 continues to be the biggest in extent.
