This cannot be good. A full-halo coronal mass ejection just a few hours ago.

That thing is unbelievable. No info on which way that was shot out at though. Hopefully not towards us even though we're still going to feel it even if it was not a direct hit.

This is during a solar minimum to...

Interestingly I'm looking at Space Weather and the only activity reported there (5min data) is a C6 or so flare. Wonder why something so huge isn't showing up?

Then Spaceweather must have just posted this.

ERUPTION! Something exploded on the farside of the sun yesterday, hurling a coronal mass ejection over the sun's eastern limb:


This means a new, active sunspot may be lurking just around the corner. If so, it should appear in a few days when the sun's rotation carries that part of the sun into view from Earth. Stay tuned for updates.

ATTENTION GHOST HUNTERS!

Ghost hunters and ghost hunting sites will many times now list Ghost Hunting Weather Reports. It is now thought that solar flares do allow for an increase in paranormal activities (spooky paranormal - not human paranormal).

www.memphisghosthunters.com...

Take a look ... memphis is already coming in with a 'MEGA FLARE' report. Other ghost hunting sites that list ghost weather are following suit.

Shadowlands Ghost Weather station isn't listing it yet.

GHOST HUNTERS .. get your EVPs and IR cameras ready! It's showtime!!

1. What causes them?
Not sure check this site
hesperia.gsfc.nasa.gov...

2. How long would it take for this to travel and hit earth?
a few minutes, up to an hour or two, I would think depending of the originating location on the sun and the earth's orbit etc...

3. What could the results be if it hit southern, northern or center.
I think the biggest disruption regardless of region would be to satellite and radio communications. Might cause blackouts for various technologies.

4. Is it possible one could hit us without any warning?
I guess it could if no one is paying attention to the sun at a particular moment, but I would think at least a few people would know when one is headed our way, whether the mass media and govt officially informs us...?

5. What can we as a public do to protect ourselves if we are alerted to one coming our way?
be prepared for disruptions in communications that could lead to other infrastructure failure. stay indoors, it believed that radiation from cme's could change cell structure... more cancer etc...


Now there's the theory that solar flares causes increase in earthquake and volcanic activity, also possibily affecting animal life too, so it's possible it also affects humans in ways we have yet to determine other than what is theorized above....
