[quote:shadasonic:MV8xOTc1MjQxXzMzMTY5MzE2X0REQ0Q3QjRF] [quote:Filament Frenzy 20856436:MV8xOTc1MjQxXzMzMTY4MzI1X0Q3NTUxRTUy] From spaceweather.com as of 9/1/2012: The explosion hurled a CME away from the sun traveling faster than 500 km/s (1.1 million mph). The cloud, shown here, is not heading directly toward Earth. #end The site also says a "glancing blow". "Glancing blow" is and has been used many many times in the space weather realm and the sun/earth effect. Nothing to be too worried about really. You can bring the tomato plant back out of the basement now. [/quote] As weak as our magnetosphere has been of late, I'd be alert to any solar storm. We've had coronal holes with average wind speeds give our magnetopause fits of late, a real plasmatic dense filament is of concern at anytime, any angle these days. [/quote]
