Region 1692 erupted with long duration M-class solar flare peaking at 06:50 UTC as M1.2 solar flare on March 15, 2013. The event started at 05:52 and ended at 07:30 UTC. A Full-Halo Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) was observed and it looks to be Earth directed.

A 10cm Radio Burst was associated with the event indicating significant radio noise in association with a solar flare. This noise is generally short-lived but can cause interference for sensitive receivers including radar, GPS, and satellite communications.?Region 1692 was still classified with Alpha magnetic configuration at 0:30 UTC today.

Description: A 10cm radio burst indicates that the electromagnetic burst associated with a solar flare at the 10cm wavelength was double or greater than the initial 10cm radio background. This can be indicative of significant radio noise in association with a solar flare. This noise is generally short-lived but can cause interference for sensitive receivers including radar, GPS, and satellite communications.

There are currently 9 numbered regions on the disk, most of them are classified with Beta magnetic configuration. Regions 1692, 1694 and 1695 have Alpha magnetic configuration. Regions 1689, 1690, 1691, 1697 and 1698 are classified with Beta magnetic configuration. Region 1696 has Beta-Gamma magnetic configuration.

NOAA SWPC forecasters estimated 15% chance for M-class?and 01% chance for X-class solar flare today.
