A major solar flare measuring X4.5 erupted on September 14, producing a large coronal mass ejection (CME).<\/p>\n
A 10cm Radio Burst lasting 38 minutes and with a peak flux of 1 000 sfu was associated with this event. A 10cm radio burst indicates that the electromagnetic burst associated with a solar flare at the 10cm wavelength was double or greater than the initial 10cm radio background. This can be indicative of significant radio noise in association with a solar flare. This noise is generally short-lived but can cause interference for sensitive receivers including radar, GPS, and satellite communications.<\/p>\n
While the location of this region still doesn\u2019t favor Earth-directed CMEs, we\u2019ll have to wait for coronagraph imagery to confirm the trajectory and potential impacts.<\/p>\n
Radio frequencies were forecast to be most degraded over North America at the time of the flare.<\/p>\n \n
