Question.... Will the alignment of the magnetic axis and the geographic axis reduce the dynamo output from decreased rotation field friction resulting in a diminishing of our dipolar field strength and also result in a reduction of our magnetosphere field strength that protects us from the CME’s?

If this happens at solar max, we could be in for the perfect storm.

There is the distinct likelihood of that slim possibility, but it all depends.
