X1.6 CME, evolution of sunspot region 2205
Solar activity has been at low levels (only C-class solar flares) since the X1.6 solar flare from sunspot region 2205 that occurred yesterday. We already mentioned in our previous article that the X1.6 coronal mass ejection is traveling mostly in an eastward direction and away from Earth. However, the coronal mass ejection was fairly wide covering well over 180 degrees on LASCO imagery which could indicate that we can not exclude a shock passage late on November 10. If we do see a shock passage it would be only a minor event at most and a geomagnetic storm is not to be expected. The NOAA SWPC nonetheless put out a warning for possible moderate G2 geomagnetic storming conditions on 10 November.
