What this entails for the SIDC team, is that, at this stage of the Solar Cycle, the Sun is very active, and will remain at a similar level of activity well into 2026. Since the beginning of 2024, many large and complex active regions have crossed the solar disk regularly driving the daily sunspot number to well above 250

The energy release was in the order of an X-flare, accompanied by an Earth-directed CME of olympic speed and a major proton storm.
Get ready for these brilliant researchers (Dutch):
