A 10cm Radio Burst lasting 1 minute and with a peak flux of 200 sfu was detected starting at 21:46 UTC. This noise can cause interference for sensitive receivers, including radar, GPS, and satellite communications.<\/p>\n

Type II or IV radio emissions were not detected, suggesting that a strong or major coronal mass ejection (CME) was unlikely to have been associated with this event.<\/p>\n

Radio frequencies were forecast to be most degraded over the Pacific Ocean at the time of the flare.<\/p>\n

The flare erupted from Active Region 4114 (Beta-Gamma-Delta), currently located near the center of the solar disk and capable of producing more strong to major solar flares. This position increases the likelihood of Earth-directed CMEs in the coming days.<\/p>\n

There is a 75% chance of M-class and a continued 10% chance of X-class solar flares through June 19, mainly from AR 4114 and AR 4115.<\/p>\n
