Sun erupts with X-class solar flare on Halloween, causes radio blackouts

On Halloween, sunspot AR 3878 unleashed a powerful X2.0 solar flare at 5:20 p.m. EDT.

Though intense, it did not produce a coronal mass ejection (CME), meaning no geomagnetic storm or aurora effects for Earth this time.

The flare was strong enough to cause a shortwave radio blackout over parts of the Pacific, Space.com has reported.
