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

wow
we suspected this would be a bigger storm than forecasted by NOAA
but a Kp9?! wow!

The DOOM that keeps us wishing but never pans out.

I want my doomgasm.

I noticed that little burst of proton density on ACE. Here's updating 1-min. list:

as the highest level of geomagnetic storms, a Kp9 is an Extreme storm with only around 4 occurring each solar cycle (11-13 years)
[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov]

Power systems: widespread voltage control problems and protective system problems can occur, some grid systems may experience complete collapse or blackouts. Transformers may experience damage.

Spacecraft operations: may experience extensive surface charging, problems with orientation, uplink/downlink and tracking satellites.

Other systems: pipeline currents can reach hundreds of amps, HF (high frequency) radio propagation may be impossible in many areas for one to two days, satellite navigation may be degraded for days, low-frequency radio navigation can be out for hours, and aurora has been seen as low as Florida and southern Texas (typically 40° geomagnetic lat.)**.

Dont say that on OPs thread he may go ape shit on u!

be ready to be a beat more electric inside by all means!!! its gonna vibrate heavly... it seems!!!

Oh no...... what ever will we do. I'm tired of people thinking shits going down. The worse that's going to happen is we lose power ...not forever tho. If anything was to happen it won't be caused from this.. it will be from the millions of ppl that don't recieve there foodstamps .....
Please everyone stop worrying and enjoy life untill the day comes when something really does happen... but just incase I don't see you.

Goodmorning , Goodafternoon and Goodnight

I know one thing, I was inside today until about 2:00 p.m. I was only going from home to car and car to another location. When I got inside, I thought I would cough and sneeze myself into oblivion. It went on for 10 minutes. I am NOT sick.

What WAS that?

nice!!
thanks for posting this :)

Yeah, and a heated up magnetosphere and space weather in our atmosphere? Been trying to spit that all night, that graph didnt appear to stop at kp 9 either what is we got kp11??????

K-P index

Last Edited by KcChamps on 10/02/2013 02:21 AM

Come on Sun and please grace me with you KP9 index.

We need to settle down and watch it develop. This is a nice sized event but may not do anything. It all depends upon the polarity of the plasma as it hits our magnetosphere. So far the polarity is capable of causing some issues, but its being pushed forward, so we may get hit with a different index tomorrow, we gotta wait, but it tiz exciting!

"space weather" is yet another "force" of the environmental religion which is just taking us back to ancient superstitious beliefs
It won't be long before many are sacrificing in an attempt to "appease"

You're Welcome

Very nice chart D! added to my hits!

super flu
you are patient zero

normally we would send the CDC out to cordon off your home,
but because of budget cuts we will just recommend you shelter in place and try to keep contact with the outside populious at minimum

thanks for your cooperation.

Anyways if this was a huge problem ot would've already have been affecting satalites in earths atmosphere . I got this info from youtubian suspiciousobserver he is pretty damn reliable I've been following him for awhile . Heres the link about your huge coronal mass ejection your all woried about watch it an be relieved . [link to m.youtube.com]

we have been watching for the sun's polar reversal for a while now
its long over due and according to NASA they believe it will occurred by the end of 2013

Jz felt a massive pressure/ vacuum in the ear..wow..this was powerful!

I'm worried about that too.....

Just started reading the thread and checked kp quick. Haven't seen it this high in a LONG TIME. Nice thread Hugh.

don't see any auroras in western upstate ny

Potsdam Kp Index showing an '8' I believe (or a 7+). This is very incredible to me and even exceeds my G3 prediction....what fun!

The initial impact drove the magnetopause well inside the geosynchronus satellite orbit!
