So what does m-class mean for us???

Are these rare.

How will this efecct the electro magnetic wave.

Is this outer spaces comparison to a gigantic Pintch.

meaning with this shut down any electrical devices.

'M-class flares are medium-sized; they can cause brief radio blackouts that affect Earth's polar regions.'

according to: spaceweather.com...

Last time we had one my cell phone was kinda glitchy all day

X class flares are the really nasty ones. So you are very unlikely to lose power with this M-class.

It's the solar equivalent to a light drizzle on a Springtime afternoon. About as spectacular as that as well. Even X Class flares have been pretty disappointing in the whole, doom and gloom aspect...

The radiation from the flare arrived that's how it was detected.
The CME you recorded was not associated with the flare. It occurred 5 hours before. It was not Earth directed and will have no effect.

Ah i hope i type this quick enough, i noticed a post on here about some member called phage and phage is now above me in this thread, amaizing, i now feel that i have achived something in life.

But to stay on topic, wow, i havn't seen flares like that one since night fever.

So what side of the globe is it suppose to hit?

Nothing to worry about.
There isn't even a warning sent out.

I think we'll get some interference around the 30th

Sorry, my prognostication was wrong, this guy knows more than me, and he says 29th will be the day to watch:
