This one occurred on the far West limb of the Sun. So
the major debris materials - protons, ions, magnetic
loops, etc. are not flying directly toward the
Earth. Forecast by the Space Environment Center is
no big deal "with isolated active to minor storm levels
possible." BTW, they increased the strength estimate
from the initial report of X17.4 all the way up to X28 !
