TEN SOLAR FLARES YESTERDAY (PDF-1923)

Yesterday there were no less than 10 solar flares, most of them in the lower C-class, but at least three of them were M-class flares or very close to it. The flares just keep on coming, and I am sure that many of you may be tired of hearing about them. Nevertheless, this kind of activity won’t come around for another eleven years and hopefully some of you might be learning to use them to your advantage. I have spared you most the nitty-gritty details because of space and attention-span, but some detail is worth having, like how long does it take for these solar events to affect Earth.
