CME is hitting us now

The Niagara River temp feels really great!

Crazy happenings today!

I find it odd that these smaller events from this cycle attract so much attention.

I followed events of the last solar cycle, starting in 1999 on my 56k modem and the magnitude of events from that cycle has served as a benchmark to me for this one. (X20, X23, X32....flares so big on last cycle they suggested using new 'Y' class category)
However, I'm seeing headlines appearing in the National news when we get ANY X Class flare, and some of these headlines talking of auroras at lower latitudes have produced the goods.

I wonder if this is because of the CME's being of increased density? Or perhaps the earth's magnetic shield if weakened and allows more matter through which would otherwise have been deflected?

I wish I'd kept all of the info I had from cycle 23 for comparison, seems like it was a very different world back then.

Just a piece of trivia, the flare that triggered the Carrington Event was estimated by some solar science website to be X70+

.......If GLP had existed in 1859, I expect the mood would've been close to mass-hysteria by the time the associated CME hit 17 hours later.


How many would've grabbed their bug-out bags and headed for the Ozarks to join the Terral-gang!


Peace people

This is insane!

I just felt the CME when i looked out of the window.

Will I need safety glasses to watch the eclipse?

True, but the rest of it isn't bad ass awesome like the USA, ya know.

AMERICA! FUCK YEAH!!!

Kinda a dud...
I do hope it at least makes some pretty lights, even if I can't see them in person.

Oh My!

OP Check out the EQ also .....


Solar Storm Cause Spacequake, Which Could Trigger 6+ Magnitude Earthquake And Rumble Sound

[link to www.ufo-blogger.com]

6 jets flew over me headed toward a thundercloud, PNW. They weren't no a.

will boxing have anything to do with the CME?

Oh My

We are hearing rumbling sound "Right Now" !

Thats such a nice story. The source is'nt too good however...

omg its Australia!

Its the rumble from the jungle.

Pay your bill.

Change the batteries. LOL

so then where's the doom?

So you need to get offa your ass and get to work

Stuck my head out the window and heard a low rumbling sound.

ITS ON!

I have a suggestion:

Most everybody who has a prep plan has a pocket compass navigator with a magnetic needle. I'm going to get mi e out right now and monitor it for needle fluctuation.

If anything is detected, I'll start filming it and post it to YouTube with a link. Care to join me in an experiment?

Great Idea

Could someone please call the doom and let it know we're all waiting for it to make it's grand entrance?

I gota digital compass and a nice magnetic one, What do"?

Pick up a pair of Xray vision glasses a the Dollar General Store, put them on your face. They are the only thing that will protect your skin from the CME. LOL

Sheesh!

Gently set it on top of your head and tell us if it is pointing N, S, E or W.

Maybe but the most important thing that happens will be our DNA change. Notice how some are angry today while others including my pets are just laying around without much emotion.

Peace
