An unusual multilevel flare occurred on the Sun: “Last night just after midnight, the Sun marked the arrival of November with a flare of level M4.6, closer to strong. Already in a few minutes the power of radiation began to grow sharply. After that there were several peaks for two hours. The flash then moved to the highest class X2, then showed a drop in energy. The strangeness did not end there. After the initial phase was detected, the orbital instruments temporarily stopped transmitting data. So there are two possibilities here. Solar matter will reach Earth on the morning of November 4. It will not spoil the holiday - magnetic storm, if there will be, then weak. Or the plasma could not break through the strong magnetic fields of the Sun because of the small speed. However, intensification of magnetic storms is still possible - this area of active spots will be in the zone of influence on the Earth for about five days.“ Source: Global News (EU, USA)
