solar storms with intense to extreme
solar flare and

aurorae at far lower latitudes than usual in both northern and southern hemispheres. On 8 May 2024, a
solar active region which had been assigned the
NOAA region number 3664 produced an
X1.0-classand multiple M-class
solar flares and launched several
coronal mass ejections (CMEs) toward Earth. On 9 May, the active region produced an X2.25- and X1.12-class flare each associated with a full-halo CME. ..."
