Mother of All Earth Direct Solar Flares In Progress !! | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 13907499 United Kingdom 05/23/2013 06:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Space weather site is worried about this one: Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13907499 ---------------- INTENSIFYING RADIATION STORM: A solar radiation storm in progress around Earth is intensifying. It currently ranks S3 (strong) on NOAA storm scales. Passengers and crew in high latitude, high altitude flights may experience increasing radiation exposures. Meanwhile, Earth-orbiting satellites could experience single-event upsets, noise in imaging systems, and a slight reduction of efficiency in solar panels. Think how many thousands of people are in the air right now around 36,000ft |

Yes, I am a suntard as many call it, and i can tell you with 100% confidence that this is a minor flare. If you look on Spaceweather.com, you will see that its peak intensity was M-5. so stop with the BS. Also the Solar Radiation storm level is only a 3. that is not at all dangerous. |

Storms magically spawning then disappearing. Cellular communications acting up. Electric acting up. Kill shot or not, this spring has truly felt like the "birth pangs" of something nasty thusfar. Everyone is worth knowing. Everything is worth learning. You're never too good. You're never not good enough. |

Kill shot or not, this spring has truly felt like the "birth pangs" of something nasty thusfar. This is a proton storm. Scientist have admitted, that HE protons may very well have a significant impact on weather patterns on earth. The significant rise in the HE Protons hints to the fact, that the matter doesn't originate of our sun, but comes from outer space. The effect we see is probably due to the sun coliding with some matter on its way. [link to www.swpc.noaa.gov] The sun itself does not emit that much of HE Protons! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 22694714 Canada 05/23/2013 09:20 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My mom who lives in Thailand says that the weather there is hotter than its ever been. The Thai people say they have never endured such intense heat. My mom says she thought she stepped on chewing gum but it was actually the bottom of her sole melting! Does this have anything to do with the solar flares happening? |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 36370061 Canada 05/23/2013 09:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | yes but what a glancing blow it will be this will give us some beasty seismic activity in coming days,especially when the cme begins to arrive you dont have to be a scientist with a degree to see how mass from the sun has effect on earth this is pretty serious,and given the recent russian swarms we can expect a huge eq in coming days... yes, and the full moon is on friday night/saturday (depending on where you are in the world). that should be in line with when the cme's are arriving. |
