Can anyone tell me? Quoting: Double O Zero Also, assuming an X class flare is heading here, how much time would we have from knowing it is coming to act? This! What will it do to living creatures? It will turn off their Xboxes and iPhones. That wouldn't be such a bad thing.... |

Quoting: Pyractomena borealis Maybe this is the wake up call we have all been waiting for. Maybe it's a GOOD thing. You may not have control over the effects of an EMP, but that is due to your lack of knowledge and motivation. We are not all in your boat. And yes, it may indeed be a great and wonderful thing. But I want my iPod during the Apocalypse, so I have Faraday cages and other preps. Tell me what this tastes like... |

Quoting: SteamrolledGobias No, but it could fry the control electronics. The magnetic material on the platter will remain intact. why wouldnt HDDS stored in boxes underneath by bed or in the closet be safe from the magnetism? Quoting: SteamrolledGobias It's not actually a magnetic effect at Earth-level. It's electrical, an electron storm. If your boxes are metal, and you electrically insulate the drives from the inside of the boxes, they'll work just fine. yes thanks for the insight, this makes plenty of sense. I just hope this wouldn't happen to the extent everybody is expecting... I guess we'll have to be prepared for anything folks |

I don't think that humans and other living creatures are affected directly by a CME (I think there could be trouble in case you have heart pacer or a defibrillator or other elctronic shit implanted in your body but that is just an assumption). Some people (here on GLP) have reported to have heat flushs or feeling kind of weird/trippy....but well, that's just GLP I guess... Indirect effects however will be felt all over. Just imagine a world without electricity: - no lights - no heating - no TV - no radio - no gas pumps working - no street lights - no cars working since all your electronics are fried - no internet - no phones - no hospital service, all patients on life support dying - no tap water - no grocery stores no nothing!

Hey OP I made a thread a while back here Thread: I've just been asked to prepare for a solar event My dad is friends with Joseph Lawrence. They are working together on a large art deal. He's really knowledgeable about these solar flares and we have reason to believe that it will wipe out the electrical grid and be even bigger and lost longer than the carrington event. I too have been researching the sun and after my solar flare presentation I've discovered that there is a very high chance for this kind of event to occur. Lawrence and the groups of astrophysicists he works with are saying the time window is anytime between now and next year in october that these flares will really cause some damage. There is no way to predict the immensity of these flares but you can measure them, and we have found that they are getting bigger.. and more intense. The sun itself is a raging fire giant. Far bigger than our earth and it has slowly been weakening our magnetosphere which is the reason for these aurora borealis' over in California, Maryland, other states etc. This is a highly probable event. We highly recommend people prepare for it |
| Digital mix guy User ID: 18487315 11/22/2012 01:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Only a few days ago, sunspot AR1618 was almost invisible. Now it is a behemoth more than 10 times wider than Earth. A movie from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory shows the sunspot's development on Nov. 20-21: Quoting: Carshy McCarsh [link to spaceweather.com] As the sunspot evolves, so does its intense magnetic field--and this means strong flares are in the offing. Fast-changing magnetic fields on the sun have a tendency to reconnect and erupt. NOAA forecasters estimate a 70% chance of M-class flares and a 15% chance of X-flares during the next 24 hours. Because of the sunspot's nearly central location on the solar disk, any eruptions will likely be Earth-directed. [link to spaceweather.com] ![]() hmmm |
| Kendall User ID: 16561399 11/22/2012 01:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OK, the sunspot is growing, but the only question that matter is: WHAT IS THIS GOING TO CHANGE IN MY LIFE??!! Quoting: Sul-Americano 1063827 Geez man, read the thread. ![]() Really for those who are uneducated about this, it is going to kill a lot who are unprepared. I mean I don't even know if you really can? Be prepared for this but I recommend knowing as much survival facts as you can. Think about this guys. Of course NASA won't warn anyone about this on an immediate scale. They already have mentioned this vaguely. Its' not a conspiracy its just the way society is delt with. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1293349 11/22/2012 01:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm completely ignorant when it comes to this particular subject. Quoting: Debauchery What does it all really mean? M-Class might, maybe, mess with a few satellites. X-class WILL get you auroras and mess with cell phones. Big X-Class is what the Carrington Event was. It can transport you back to the 18th century in a moment. I've got my generators ready and on standby ANY electronics within your generators (switches, etc.) will be fried along with mother boards, etc. (Just like the electronics in your car.) Figure out a way to build a Faraday cage of sorts or you won't have generators. |
