Jul 13 2012 DANGEROUS X-Class Flare Directed Toward Earth


Today a very DANGEROUS CME Has left the sun and is headed on a path directly for earth.

This X-Class Flare which is on a path DIRECTLY Toward Earth may be of a greater magnitude than indicated by the space based solar monitoring equipment.

The monitoring equipment may in fact be somewhat UNDER ESTIMATING the severity of the X-1 solar flare due to previous solar storms causing damage to the space based monitoring equipment. Some solar watchers believe a couple of previous solar bursts have negatively affected the sensors and caused the equipment to be under estimating the size of ALL subsequent solar bursts of energy. ...

This Solar Burst Will Directly affect the East Coast of the United States







At the very least we can expect an increase in Earthquake activity, an increase in general wind storms, an increase in rain and thunder storm activity and some electric power grid anomalies. A worst case would be severe conditions stated above with a complete loss of the power grid system. Also; it may be a very wise move to store your personal electronic devises in a well grounded metal enclosure or grounded metal cabinet to protect the vulnerable electronic circuitry from induced overload failure. ...

X-FLARE! Big sunspot AR1520 unleashed an X1.4-class solar flare on July 12th. Because the sunspot is directly facing Earth, everything about the blast was geoeffective. For one thing, it hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) directly toward our planet. According to a forecast track prepared by analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab, the CME will hit Earth on July 14th around 10:20 UT (+/- 7 hours) and could spark strong geomagnetic storms. Sky watchers should be alert for auroras this weekend. Geomagnetic storm alerts: text, voice.
The explosion also strobed Earth with a pulse of extreme UV radiation, shown here in a movie recorded by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory:
The UV pulse partially ionized Earth's upper atmosphere, disturbing the normal propagation of radio signals around the planet. Monitoring stations in Norway, Ireland and Italy recorded the sudden ionospheric disturbance.
Finally, solar protons accelerated by the blast are swarming around Earth. The radiation storm, in progress, ranks "S1" on NOAA space weather scales, which means it poses no serious threat to satellites or astronauts. This could change if the storm continues to intensify. Stay tuned.
