A major solar flare measuring X1.5 erupted from Active Region (AR) 3936 at 04:14 UTC on December 30, 2024. The event started at 04:01 and ended at 04:28 UTC. The flare was associated with a 10cm Radio Burst (tenflare) from 04:08 to 04:15 UTC, with a peak flux of 1 000 sfu.<\/p>\n
This event was followed by an impulsive X1.1 flare, which started at 04:29 and peaked at 04:31 UTC. This major event ended at 04:34 UTC and was produced by AR 3932. A tenflare lasting 2 minutes with a peak flux of 430 sfu was registered from 04:29 to 04:31 UTC.<\/p>\n
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 indicate significant radio noise associated 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
