Sunspot 4325 has a beta-gammamagnetic field

On 01/04/2026 10:28 am by Victor Rogus | Sedona, Arizona, USA

Spaceweather.com reports: Sunspot 4325 has a beta-gamma magnetic field that poses a threat for M-class solar flares. A CME expected to hit Earth on Jan. 3rd missed. There's still a chance for an impact on Jan. 4th, though. A CME launched by a C6-class flare on Jan. 1st could arrive today and spark a minor G1-class geomagnetic storm. Aurora visibility will be poor due to the glare from this weekend's full Wolf Moon. Clouds cleared here for the first time in days, allowing us a look at our nearest star.
