    Space Weather News for October 19, 2003
    http://spaceweather.com

    An X-class solar flare erupted today near sunspot 484--a remarkably fast
    growing active region near the sun's northeastern limb. Yesterday the spot
    was barely visible; now it is about 7 times wider than Earth. Because of
    its location near the suns's limb, today's blast was probably not
    Earth-directed. Sunspot 484 is, however, moving into position where it
    could aim solar flares and coronal mass ejections our way later this
    week--if solar activity continues high.

    Visit Spaceweather.com for movies of the active region, safe solar
    observing tips, and updates.
