It is well known from astronomers that the Sun rotates its sunspots every 27.2 days.
It was also recently discovered that the same core of sun spots stay from one cycle, to the next one. They might not be visible but the magnetic core
is there, invisible, and they show themselves again, over the next solar cycle, in that same solar surface spots. This is not to say that new magnetic
cores will form, and give origin to new sunspots. But roughly the same sunspots appear over and over again after 27.2 days.
I then checked when there were recently sunspots facing Earth, and geomagnetic storms:
For example:
9 to 14 January 2011
5 to 10 February 2011
4 to 9 March 2011
Going backwards this correlates with major solar storms in 31-.5 August 2010, or even back to 20 January 2005, very close to 15 July 2001 and 2 April
2001.
Only the major storm of 29-4 Nov 2003 does not fit in the cycle. Curiously appearing 14 days later, as if in the opposite side of the sun, to where
most intense sunspots referred before formed.
Have you followed so far?
Extending the 27.2 day cycle into the future, we will get for example the following dates:
31 to 4 April 2011
28 to 2 May 2011
...
12 to 17 September 2011
9 to 14 October 2011
5 to 10 November 2011
...
20 to 25 March 2012
16 to 21 April 2012
13 to 18 May 2012
10 to 15 June 2012
7 to 12 July 2012
...
18 to 23 December 2012
Curiously, the 21/12/2012 Mayan date, appears right on the spot, as the solar maximum is predicted for 2012 and 2013. As usual, major solar storms
will occur. How big no one knows.
It will be interesting to see if the solar sunspots and corresponding geomagnetic storms on Earth will fit this pattern!
