Space Weather News for July 8, 2014

M6-CLASS SOLAR FLARE: On July 8th, Earth-orbiting satellites detected a strong M6-class solar flare.  The flare itself came as little surprise because there is a phalanx of large sunspots crossing the solar disk.  However, the source of the flare was unexpected.   Check http://spaceweather.com for more information about the blast site and prospects for additional eruptions in the days ahead.

DID YOU MISS THE FLARE?  Next time get a phone call.  Solar flare alerts are available from http://spaceweathertext.com (text) and http://spaceweatherphone.com (voice).
