For days now we have all been waiting for one of these huge sunspots to erupt when all of a sudden the smaller one AR 4299 decided to explode producing a M8 class solar flare; the Sun can do unexpected things sometimes and can be tricky :-)
This directed solar flare (CME) is Earth directed and should produce some beautiful auroras in the next couple of days up in the Northern Hemisphere.
You can keep an eye out on Spaceweather.com for more information and I’m sure there will be some beautiful images posted by contributors to the website at:
