**!!SUNTARD BAT SIGNAL!**---7 INCOMING EARTH DIRECTED CME's & TWO X-FLARES TODAY..DOOM?!PLEASE EXPLAIN!?

There are 7 incoming Earth Directed CME 's
including two brand new X class flares?

Now I'm no SunTard..but it seems like this could be bad? Is it something to worry about?

Can the Magnetosphere handle this kind of bombardment? What can 7 impacts of M and X class flares do?

The Carrington Event is distinguished by a smaller CME prior to the X-Class that melted telegraph lines, etc.

"What happens is the back wave rides up onto the prior wave and sort of builds potential, like a "voltage" increase.The surge of electricity here is a result of the magnetosphere snapping back into place. Causing magnetic reconnection events which induces current in the upper atmosphere. These inductions wreck havok on conductive material down here on Earth.The reconnection events happen when the CME leaves Earth, not when it hits Earth.So that is how the build up effect us more. It pulls the magnetosphere further back, charging more energy to be induced by more reconnections more often = more current."


--I understand these aspects on a elementary level and this is where my post stems from.


"As it is, a weaker field means less induction per X amount of force from a CME. We will see less induction compared to the past with higher mag field strength. As a weaker field has less equipotential lines of magnetic force.
Doesn't mean it won't kill the grid, it can and will one day.

maybe time to leave CA ... go on a nice little vacation to four corners ...hmmm

Just had another M1.0-2.0

New M class flare in progress, Has not peaked yet.
