5 Solar Eruptions in 2 Days

Searched and didn't see anybody that posted this article so thought I'd just throw this out there. Five CMEs in 48 hours maybe thats why the skys been so many different colors the last few days. Whens this solar maximum supposed to be?

Two of them were aimed in our general direction im pretty sure, one of them hit yesterday around 4 pm.

Cool! I love the sun and what it does.I wonder what happens to the actual solar matter that is ejected off the sun? I see big chunks flying away in different directions.Does it cool and harden in the coldness of space? does it keep flying through the universe after its ejected? Does it just fall back into the sun because of the extreme gravity? Lots of questions. Good thread.

I don't really think this is unusual. The sun has been heating-up certainly for the last few years. Things are still going to get more intense. Most of the activity at the moment is in the north hemisphere, I believe the southern side needs to also pick up in activity THEN we can say we are getting near solar maximum. We're not there yet.

yeah i think everything is ok with our sun. haha in fact its freezing right now...

5 solar eruptions, one planetary alignment and a 6.7 EQ in Siberia. Correlations? You be the judge.

Texas has hit record highs. In fact, it was 84 degrees just last week here. That's very unusual if you ask me.
