Sunspot, Solar Flare
Solar Flare Warning as Earth in Crosshairs of Explosive New Sunspot
A new sunspot forming on the surface of the sun might be about to fling solar flares in our direction. The sunspot, named 3856, is facing Earth and has developed a volatile type of magnetic field known as a "beta-gamma-delta" field,
The sun is now in its solar maximum, meaning more aurora activity
This peak of activity is expected to last for another year, according to NASA.
The Sun has reached solar maximum, NASA and NOAA scientists say
Aurora watchers and sun gazers, take heart — our star could remain at this level of activity for another year.
More Solar Flares and Auroras Forecast As Sun Reaches 11-Year Peak

Powerful solar flare to begin producing auroras and possible electrical disruptions
Space weather watchers are expecting a powerful solar flare from the sun to reach Earth Thursday evening giving off a light show of colorful auroras as far south as Alabama and northern California.
Sunspot Pair: Erupted With 'Sympathetic Solar Flares'
When sunspots erupt at nearly the same time, it could be something known as "sympathetic solar flares." A double eruption from sunspots AR3614 and AR3615 may be an example of it. One of the flares was an X1-class flare and was captured in multiple wavelengths by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory.
