An X1.5 solar flare erupted from active region AR 4366, positioned at N14E14, beginning at 13:58 UTC, peaking at 14:08 UTC, and ending at 14:18 UTC on February 3.<\/p>\n
There were no confirmed radio signatures detected that would suggest a coronal mass ejection (CME) was produced. Radio frequencies were forecast to be most degraded over the Atlantic Ocean and South America.<\/p>\n
This was the fifth X-class solar flare since February 1, continuing a series of major eruptions from the same region. AR 4366 produced X1.0 and X8.1 events on February 1, X2.8 and X1.6 on February 2, and the current X1.5 on February 3. Five high-energy events in less than 60 hours make AR 4366 one of the most active regions of Solar Cycle 25 so far.<\/p>\n
