.24 hr Summary... Solar activity was high. Region 2192 (S12E06, Fkc/beta-gamma-delta) produced an X1/2b (R3-Strong) flare at 22/1428 UTC with an associated 200 sfu Tenflare. Careful analysis of SDO and SOHO/LASCO imagery suggested that there was not a CME associated with this event. Region 2192 also produced two M-class events (an R1-Minor and an R2-Moderate) during the period. The region continued to grow and SDO magnetogram imagery indicated emerging positive flux within the large trailer spot cluster. An M1 flare was observed at 22/1557 UTC off the southeast limb associated with a Bright Surge on the Limb (BSL) and a Type II radio sweep (1469 km/s). The CME is well off the Sun-Earth line and is not expected to be geoeffective. New Region 2195 (N08E70, Dso/beta) was numbered today as it rotated onto the northeast limb and it appears there are more trailer spots to follow. All other regions on the disk were relatively stable and quiet. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed. .Forecast... R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) flares are expected with R3 (Strong) activity likely over the next three days (23-25 Oct) due to an increase in magnetic complexity within Region 2192.
