Earth Under Attack! CME arrives ahead of schedule amidst radiation storm! Tomata plants in!

Yep, we may see more disturbances or unsettled conditions later, but things seem to have calmed down for now. The highest NOAA Kp level was only a 6, although Potsdam recorded a Kp of 8(-).

Thanks Hugh.... nice of you for stopping by in this thread ;)

I had some small hope some more would follow the initial wave, but apparently that was it......

5 stars and a Thanks, Hugh for good info!

5 for you

I think there is more to go.

I'm in the UK Just north of London and the clouds are starting to clear. I can see a heavy green glow towards the north.

What's really weird is that both my compass's will not let me find north or east! they just keep spinning right past them to west.

So was that the best chance of auras last night?
I live in nz and didnt see a thing, very clear skys
such a let down :(

Has the worst of it been and gone?

thats how i've felt today

its macdonald's new green curry burger, only came out today

Here, it was *colder* today than yesterday

Any aurora's tonight? I've got about 3 miles to go to see them if there are.

Annnnnd, we're still here. No blacked out power systems? No quakes larger than normal? Funny how these threads shut right up when the DOOM!!! doesn't show up.

Make note and remember next time someone suggests SOLAR DOOM!!!

I was flying at 34.000 ft at this time. Didnt feel a thing.

These threads are important warnings for the time something does happen by posters that share of their resources & experience to inform others. Threads as such are not prediction threads & posters should be encouraged. Those that are disappointed about the doom, it will come in its time Awesome thread HughMEye!

Nope. Threads such as these are nothing more than crying wolf every week. If anything, they provide a *dis*service for those who are looking for *real* warnings. Every time someone falls for a failed prediction/warning thread, they're less likely to believe the next one.

You can only dive into the bunker so many times before you decide to stop being gullible.

Before one makes an opinion information is required... All data is useful. Even the data that is incorrect as there are algorithms that allow the accurate to be quantified. One top of that there are posters with a baseline of accountability to self & others in truth, in a time in witch it is difficult to determine what is real and what is manipulated...

Hot Damn!!!!

Agreed! Hot Damn M1!!

That would be a valid statement, if the recipients of that information actually took the time to *research* and *validate* to determine whether or not the information is correct before forming an opinion. Unfortunately, that is not the case here: most here will simply form an opinion that the most outlandish explanation is true, accepting claims on face value without question.

Understanding that, the presenter of any such misinformation becomes complicit in generating unnecessary fear in a group of people that will accept anything anti-establishment as truth.

Then whose fault is it that they are/ were deceived. Their own. The difference here is that it is possible to cross reference many sources on a particular subject with an internal system of credibility based on a poster.

Data is data. The point that it is being presented and adds to confusion among the ignorant is true but a useless argument in the whole context.
The problem is they choose not to think for themselves and do not consider what many others think, that is the real problem. The answer does not equate to providing them with accurate information as they lack the knowledge to understand even this. It is to encourage them towards evolution. To think for themselves... The ability to process data.

Those whom continue to believe whatever they wish without testing, will. This is obvious. The problem is not information and unlike most sources there are many independent sources in agreement on this site on information. Some conclusions might be guesses but that is to be expected and factored in, such as the credibility, experience & understanding of the poster. As this is obvious here as with all sources,
