Begin Time: 2022 Apr 20 0341 UTC
Maximum Time: 2022 Apr 20 0357 UTC
End Time: 2022 Apr 20 0404 UTC
X-ray Class: X2.2
Location: S30W90
NOAA Scale: R3 - Strong
Potential Impacts: Area of impact consists of large portions of the sunlit side of Earth, strongest at the sub-solar point.
Radio - Wide area blackout of HF (high frequency) radio communication for about an hour.

Issue Time: 2022 Apr 20 0421 UTC
SUMMARY: 10cm Radio Burst
Begin Time: 2022 Apr 20 0354 UTC
Maximum Time: 2022 Apr 20 0355 UTC
End Time: 2022 Apr 20 0355 UTC
Duration: 1 minutes
Peak Flux: 509 sfu
Latest Penticton Noon Flux: 160 sfu
Description: A 10cm radio burst indicates that the electromagnetic burst associated with a solar flare at the 10cm wavelength was double or greater than the initial 10cm radio background. 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.
