Oh dear lawd baby jesus
A strong solar flare (M9.8) was just detected around AR 3500 near center disk. A wave of plasma appears to be leaving the flare site, a good sign for a potential Earth directed eruption. |

Soon this MASSIVE CORONAL HOLE will be looking directly at earth and we will face the possibility of being wacked by the biggest Coronal Mass Ejection in the history of man and sent back to the Stone Age. DOOM I SAY, DOOM! [begin Jaws theme music]
The image from 3 Nov. on the left and 1 Dec on the right. It has filled in a little in the south but extended and widened to the north. How long will it last? It is already 6 months old. Last edited by Rockstar; 12-01-23 at 11:49 AM. |

As of 1537 UTC 2 December it’s looking at us.

Let's pray it lands on Moscow, Beijing, Teheran or Washington DC and kills a few dinosaurs...

Unfortunately, it will probably miss the Earth.
Like a PC, the planet is overdue for a reboot.

Geomagnetic Storm
Well, the NOAA has set condition G4. There's a sun spot that's fifteen times wider than the Earth and growing. We're approaching Solar Maximum. There have been three major Coronal Mass Ejections of late, and the emissions from those CMEs will be reaching Earth starting this evening. The Aurora Borealis will be visible in much of the northern hemisphere, and the Aurora Australis will be visible in the southern hemisphere.
We could be headed for a Carrington Event like the one that occurred in 1859, when telegraph offices caught fire across the country. Only now we're dependent on cell phones, computers, GPS and other satellite services, motor vehicles full of electronics, aircraft, and the electrical grid. So the impact of such an event would be significantly more intense than it was in 1859. You could kiss all that stuff goodbye. It's possible that tonight we're going to party like it's 1699. Nobody really knows what to expect. Imagine what it would be like in major cities if tonight everything that uses electricity burst into flames. No power. No vehicles, No police or EMS. No cell phones. No computers. No GPS. Etcetera. I'm glad that I live out in the middle of nowhere and have horses. Anyway, tonight's the night. There's your doom porn for the day. |

Supposed to hit today and into early Saturday. I think another CME was behind this one but not sure if we’re in the path of it. Should be a fairly active Aurora Borealis

Just got an alert: “CME IMPACT IMMENENT…”. Two more on the way. Earth will be messy during the next 5 days or so with geomagnetic storms conditions up to severe G4 geomagnetic storm level expected.

I don't think Aktung has ever been accused of being a kid.
At least not during this century.. Meanwhile, Suck it, Georgia. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for clear skies. |

That's really not a good way to talk of Aktung. It's certainly not his fault whatsoever that he is from the land of misfit toys. |
