The Sun is about to Flip! Or Finish the magnetic pole flip.
The sun is gearing up for a major solar flip, NASA says.
In an event that occurs once every 11 years, the magnetic field of the sun will change its polarity in a matter of months, according new observations by NASA-supported observatories.
The flipping of the sun’s magnetic field marks the peak of the star’s 11-year solar cycle and the halfway point in the sun’s “solar maximum” — the peak of its solar weather cycle. NASA released a new video describing the sun’s magnetic flip on Monday.

Current Alert! Glancing Blow From CME
Last night around 01:00 UTC the sun thought he might play santa and give us a gift of plasma. Two filament eruptions on the earth-facing disk occurred almost at the same time and launched two Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), one of them has a earth-directed component.
It looks like it could be a glancing blow.
