EARTH’S MAGNETIC FIELD JUST STRUGGLED WITH A WEAK CME: SIGN OF THE TIMES MAY 14, 2021 CAP ALLON

On May 12, a weak Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) released from the Sun hit Earth. The event was supposed to pass by uneventfully — it would perhaps spark a few auroras, but nothing more. So how did a strong G3 geomagnetic storm ensue?

Nobody was expecting a level 3 event from this CME.

Nobody saw the KP Index hitting 7.

If this is a ping list could you please add me to it?

Of course, it’s just a few months, but the UK has had the coldest April/May of the last 300 years. And it certainly seems to be a cooler than usual spring here.

"we may be in for quite a whack one of these days, maybe in our lifetime of us aging boomers!"

But wait.!! Lord Gates said HE was going to fix the sun so it wouldn't cause us any harm...

Fear not, Bill Gates will fix it.. (spit)

The sun AFFECTS the Earth’s magnetic field which produces climate altering EFFECTS.

water vapor absorbs in a much wider band of long wave radiation

London is looking better by the day.

Were a CME on the scale of the 1859 Carrington Event to happen today the mayhem created would be beyond anything civilization has experienced short of the Medieval Plagues.
