Details:
Magnetic fields above big sunspot AR 1520 erupted sparking a X1.4 solar flare. X-rays bathed the dayside of our planet and sent a wave of ionization rippling through the atmosphere over Europe. The sudden ionospheric disturbance (SID) disrupted propagation of VLF radio signals a phenomenon recorded at the Sormano Astronomical Observatory, Italy.
