Baloney. That’s the diurnal variation of the magnetic field measured from the GOES satellite. Look at the date stamps.

Sorry, I guess I’m stupid. I was replying to a post that mentioned solar wind, and saw the image I posted, which shows not just the diurnal variation you mention, but marked fluctuations/variations or “jiggles” as stupid people like me describe them, on those diurnal variations.

And because I am so stupid, I noted the time/date as well. Then somebody smarter than me explained to me what UTC means.

And again, being that I am so stupid, I always thought that solar winds contained a crapload of charged particles, which some people call a geomagnetic storm. And I also apparently mistakenly believed that geomagnetic storms could affect the earth’s magnetic field, causing something like those “jiggles” I saw on the image I posted.

And I again, mistakenly, believed that those magnetic vibrations induced currents not only in the upper atmosphere but in the ground below us.

Accept my apologies for being so stupid.
