601 FXXX06 KWNP 101856 WEKHIL :Product: 7-day Space Weather Highlights :Issued: 2025 Nov 10 0522 UTC # Prepared by the US Dept. of Commerce, NOAA, Space Weather Prediction Center # Product description and SWPC contact on the Web # https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/content/subscription-services # # 7-day Space Weather Highlights # Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 03 - 09 November 2025 Solar activity ranged from low to high levels. Region 4274 (N25, L=275, class/area=Ekc/900 on 09 Nov) was the largest and most complex, and responsible for the majority of major events during the past week. On 03 Nov, high levels were observed due to five M-class (R1-R2/Minor-Moderate) flares that were produced by Region 4274. Two flares had associated CMEs that were identified as containing potentially Earth-directed components, an M1.6 (R1) at 03/0925 UTC and an M5.0 (R2)at 03/1011 UTC. Arrival of the CMEs at Earth were estimated over 06-07 Nov. High activity levels continued on 04 Nov, with the high flare being an X1.8/1b (R3-Strong) flare at 04/1751 UTC from Region 4274. Associated with the flare was a Tenflare and Type IV radio sweep. Region 4276 (S17, L=240, class/area=Dai/180 on 07 Nov) also produced an X-class flare (R3) with an X1.1 flare at 04/2201 UTC with an associated Type IV radio sweep and CME. Analysis of the ejecta from these events suggested potential to affect Earth over 06-07 Nov. High solar activity was again observed on 05 Nov following an M 7.4/2N (R2) flare at 05/1119 UTC and an M8.6/2B (R2) flare at 05/2207 UTC from Region 4274. Tenflares and CMEs were associated with both events. Arrival at Earth was estimated over 07-08 Nov. Moderate levels were observed on 06-07 Nov due to an M1.1 (R1) flare at 06/0431 UTC from Region 4276 and an M1.7/1n (R1) at 07/0716 UTC flare from Region 4274. Associated with the M1.7 was a Type II (est 1,169 km/s) and Type IV radio sweep alongside a CME that was likely to propogate off of the Sun-Earth line. Low solar activity was observed on 08 Nov. Finally, on 09 Nov, Region 4274 produced an X1.7 (R3) flare at 09/0735 UTC. A complicated CME signature was observed in subsequent coronagraph imagery. Analysis and modelling of the event suggested potential for arrival at Earth over 11-12 Nov. No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit between 03-09 Nov. The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels on 03-05 Nov and at moderate levels on 06-09 Nov. The maximum flux of the greater than 2 MeV electrons measured by GOES-19 satellite during the week was 2,440 pfu at 04/1805 UTC. Geomagnetic field activity was between quiet to G3 (Strong) geomagnetic storm levels. Active conditions on 03 Nov were observed due to weak influence from a CME that left the Sun on 31 Oct. Unsettled conditions were observed on 04 Oct due to positive polarity coronal hole influence. G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic storm conditions late on 05 Nov and G3 (Strong) geomagnetic storm conditions early on 06 Nov resulted from the onset of a CME that left the Sun on 03 Nov. G1 (Minor) storm levels were observed late on 06 Nov and in to 07 Nov as more CMEs that left the Sun over 03-04 Nov passed by Earth. G2 conditions were again observed on 08 Nov due to the passage of a CME that left the Sun on 04 Nov. Only quiet to unsettled condtions were observed on 09 Nov.
