We had two X1 class solar flares yesterday from the same sun spot - AR 3590. There were NO CMEs produced by this flare activity that would have ejected material towards earth. They were simply non-earth facing flares so there should not be any disruptions to cell service. The radiation storm from a solar flare only affects the sunlit side of the earth in the direct path of the storm within minutes unlike a CME that ejects material and can take a few days to reach earth. Sometimes the radiation storm from a flare can impact navigation systems and radio - but not cellular network communications and the power grid. We are continuing to watch this particular area as it faces earth. Nothing to see here. It is unlikely that disrupted cellular communications can be attributed to the currently reported solar activity.

We had two X1 class solar flares yesterday from the same sun spot - AR 3590. There were NO CMEs produced by these flares ejecting material towards earth. They were simply flares so there should not be any significant disruptions. We are continuing to watch this particular area as it becomes more earth facing. Nothing to see here. It is unlikely that disrupted communications can be attributed to the currently reported solar activity.
We had two X1 class solar flares yesterday from the same sun spot - AR 3590. There does not appear to be any earth directed stuff coming our way so there should not be any significant disruptions. We are continuing to watch this particular area as it becomes more earth facing. Nothing to see here. It is unlikely that disrupted communications can be attributed to the currently reported solar activity.
