Please forgive me, I apologize in advance, as I am not very smart when it comes to anything science or math related.... but can't they sort of map or project the path that the flare will take? One of the links someone posted showed an animation that showed something (I guess the flare?) and it's path... like how they map hurricanes and stuff. Was that link a picture of THIS specific flare?
Also, I keep reading different things that confuse me. Does a solar flare automatically also mean a CME? And is it the CME or the Flare or BOTH that is the most potentially damaging?

HELP!
IS THIS WHY I AM FLAT OUT OF CELLPHONE SERVICE? SOMEONE?
I have been without cellphone service to my 'Net10' which also is 'Tracphone'? I went to their support forum and am awaiting assistance, and while I've been -waiting- , I saw other new threads beginning on the 6th, of people having problems. I also filed a customer service request for technical support, and I got an auto email with a 'ticket #' and saying that they will respond in 12 hours.
Anyone elses cellphone service gone? Is it from this sun thing?
