Sunspots and Space Weather

Post by can't sit still » Wed Jun 08, 2011 8:41 pm

Well, the sun is waking up from it's quiet period. There was a pretty good storm. It will hit early tomorrow morning. It won't be a direct hit because we aren't lined up well. It is expected to cause communication disruptions.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ ... power.html
NASA expects the developing solar cycle to be quite active.
Jennifer Lawson Phd. and Piers Corbyn both claim that there is a VERY strong connection between solar storms and weather here on Earth. Ms. Lawson wrote me a year ago to warn that the weather would turn very violent after 2010. The weather has already gotten violent. NASA predicts it to peak about 2013. Several river systems are in flood and spring planting is being ruined in many areas.
There is a very strange element to all this. Sure, the Gulf may be warm. How does that cause tornadoes in California? Almond orchards were ripped out. There have been tornadoes in many areas of Ca. Tornadoes in Queens, in Oregon, Flagstaff, etc.

In 1989, there was a huge solar storm that hit Quebec. http://www.solarstorms.org/SWChapter1.html
If you were to be standing on the sun, 93 million miles away, how could you [or the sun] possibly hit an area as small as Quebec? The Carrington event was the strongest known solar storm. http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/sc ... gtonflare/
It occurred when the sun was relatively quiet. If things are already this violent,,, and the peak is 2 years off, we may get hit very hard.

See, that's the first sign of the coming end times. I feel great and this terrifies me.
Aren't you even a little bit scared?

I'm carbon-based. I'm not worried :D It's all just an interesting point to me.

I said a "few interruptions in communication". This isn't at all rare;

If y'all want to puff this up into some sort of end-of-world scenario, you'll have to use your imagination. I just wish that I were back up in Alaska. The Aurora Borealis is fantastic. I post boring scientific stuff. Y'all are too dramatic.

I was hoping for Aurora from here.......but, didn't find it......maybe, a little red, right at the horizon.

You're pretty far south. I suspect that the red light at the horizon was at the Mustang Ranch.

The Northern Lights are seen in Wyoming quite frequently. They barely scale the horizon, but on a good dark night, it's enough to cast a shadow.

The sun is getting very interesting. Researchers have now seen plasma waves. Something that was speculated but never observed. http://beforeitsnews.com/story/708/550/ ... e_Sun.html
Researchers are also calling for more of this plasma to reach Earth. We've know all along that our grid was at risk. GOV talks about shutting down transformers when a CME is on the way;
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/scien ... 96748.html
It seems obvious that Sol is kicking up in a way that is NOT clearly correlated with the sunspot cycle.

John Bedini is a brilliant inventor. He has made the claim that the earth is a homopolar motor driven by the sun. Earth has an iron core so the idea is a possibility. Since the core is nickel-iron, one might expect the core to be more "driven" than the lighter surface materials. It has been confirmed that the core DOES rotate faster than the outer parts. http://www.livescience.com/9313-earth-c ... firms.html

The sun is going into a very active state. This isn't necessarily shown by sunspot activity. Sunspots are cooler areas. This increased activity is kicking up huge plasma storms. Plasma is defined as "a hot ionized material consisting of nuclei and electrons."
If the sun is producing even larger amounts of electrical energy,,,, and the earth is a homopolar motor,,,,, one would expect "perturbations" in the motor.
This article by a Japanese researcher claims that there are huge magma flows on the move under Japan. http://www.rense.com/general94/mag.htm
Japan is being continually rocked by new quakes so, there is probably truth to the magma research.

Worldwide, there is a huge increase in volcanism. This couldn't possibly be explained by weather changes, either hotter or colder. ALL of this was predicted by Jennifer Lawson Phd several years ago. And, YES, it is related to the galactic alignment.
NASA is predicting this all to peak in 2013. This corresponds to the dates predicted by the Mayans. Regardless of whether or not, you subscribe to the celestial projections of the Mayans, NASA has confirmed the date.

The Mayans predicted an alignment. It is just a matter of celestial movement projected to the future. It's as inescapable as sunrise and sunset. The effects of this alignment are just something that we will learn about in the near future. If things are this "shaky" in mid-2011, I expect that Terra will be rockin and rollinn by 2013. :lol:

John Bedini is a brilliant inventor.
Outrageous claims are often predicated on such bullshit, opening statements.

Brilliant in what sense? Brilliant by which fool's quorum? Stats? Peer-reviewed links?

CSS, you remain an ass. Your jester's schtick continues to be... sophomoric at best and but I'm inclined to tag you as plain ol' intellectually lazy.

You are boring. BTW, are you by chance a sock of A II Z?

Seems that the cosmic rays are really kicking up;
