X-Flare just occurred.. from old sunspot 2975.. X1.1 Solar flare and Strong R3 conditions 4/16/2022

A major solar flare measuring X1.1 was just detected around newly reassigned AR 2994 (ex 2975) towards the east limb. The event was responsible for a Strong (R3) level radio blackout affecting the sunlit side of Earth. It would appear that a coronal mass ejection (CME) is likely, however due to the location still near the limb, it should be directed mostly away from Earth. The solar rotation will carry the returning active region into a better Earth facing position over the next several days.
