Right now
The most recent data we hold from GOES XRAY arrived 6 hours ago, and this point is in it.
Reported by GOES XRAY today.
What the source measured
GOES XRAY reported: M1.0 solar flare detected by GOES X-ray sensor. Peak flux: 1.02e-5 W/m². Moderate solar flare. Minor HF radio effects on sunlit side of Earth.
How we know
Confirmed by 2 independent sources, including GOES XRAY.
Our own score for this event is 31 out of 100, at 56 % confidence.
The score is ours, computed from intensity, exposed population and local history — not the source’s.
Computed under scoring rules v4. Rows carrying other versions were judged by different rules and are not directly comparable.

| Soho Lasco Note | This CME is visible to the east/southeast in STEREO A COR2 and SOHO LASCO C2/C3 imagery. This event is not seen in GOES CCOR-1 imagery in real time due to a data gap starting at 2026-09-05T03:30Z. The source is an eruption and C6.4 flare from Active Region 14524 (N12E45) starting around 2026-09-05T1 |
