X1.7 and X1.1 Flares Observed on 05 Aug

X1.7 and X1.1 Flares Observed on 05 Aug
published: Tuesday, August 06, 2024 12:45 UTC

The X1.7 flare originating from just beyond the western limb that was observed at 05/1340 UTC was followed by an X1.1 flare from AR3780 at 1527 UTC. Given the source location of beyond the western limb, an Earth-directed CME is unlikely for the first event. The X1.1 event from AR3780 is still under assessment as we await updated coronagraph imagery.
