Default STRONG SOLAR FLA A big, active sunspot (AR1515) is growing

Space Weather News for July 2, 2012

STRONG SOLAR FLA A big, active sunspot (AR1515) is growing on the
Earthside of the sun. This morning it erupted, producing an M5.6-class
solar flare that ionized Earth's upper atmosphere with a brief but
intense pulse of X-rays and extreme ultraviolet radiation. More
eruptions are in the offing as the sunspot turns to face Earth. Check
http://spaceweather.com for more information and updates.
