Complex sunspot region 4366
Sunspot region 4366 has developed into a complex sunspot region with a magnetic Beta-Gamma-Delta layout. The region is impressive and has been producing strong solar flares today including two M5 events, two M6 events and even an X1.0 solar flare (R3-strong) that peaked at 12:33 UTC.
None of the solar flares have been eruptive thus far but there is some serious potential in this group as it rotates more and more into an earth-facing position in the days ahead. Expect more M-flare and perhaps even X-class activity in the next 24 hours. Any future eruptions have a good chance to be aimed at our planet.
An X8.1 flare marks the strongest solar eruption since October 2024

Three X-class solar flares were recorded between late February 1 and early February 2. /CMG
Three X-class solar eruptions occurred between late February 1 and early February 2, including the strongest solar flare in nearly four months, according to the National Space Weather Monitoring and Warning Center under the China Meteorological Administration.
The most intense event – an X8.1 flare that erupted at around 8 a.m. on Sunday – was the strongest solar flare recorded so far this year and the most powerful since October 2024, the center said.

Sun erupts with 17 explosions in less than 24 hours from monster sunspot
A massive sunspot known as AR4366 has turned the Sun into a flare factory, unleashing 17 minor solar flares and three powerful X-class blasts in less than 24 hours.
Emerging just days ago as a tiny speck, this behemoth now rivals half the size of the infamous Carrington Event sunspot of 1859, with its rapid growth fueling instability and more eruptions likely ahead.
The Carrington Event sunspot refers to a huge sunspot group observed in September 1859 that unleashed the most powerful solar storm ever recorded.The standout event in February was a tremendous X8-class flare, peaking late on February 1, 2026. This extreme ultraviolet burst ionised Earth's upper atmosphere, sparking a widespread shortwave radio blackout over the South Pacific, including Australia and New Zealand.
