A strong solar flare measuring M5.7 at its peak time erupted from Region 2209 on November 16, 2014. The event started at 17:35, peaked at 17:48 and ended at 17:57 UTC.
Region 2209 ('beta-gamma-delta') is Old Region 2192, source of six X-class solar flares during late October. Its location is still not favorable for Earth directed Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs).
A 10cm Radio Burst lasting 1 minute (peak flux 300 sfu) was associated with the event. This can be indicative of significant radio noise in association with a solar flare. This noise is generally short-lived but can cause interference for sensitive receivers including radar, GPS, and satellite communications.

So would Earth directed CMEs put us in danger,
or perhaps infuse us with info from the Great Central Sun?
