Small risk for a possibly interesting weekend if
these cause EM issues with power<br>
grids etc.<br>
If you experience problems with radio and
satellite comms, please post here and let us<br>
know!<br>
<br>
"Two big explosions on the surface of the sun
will cause a moderate to strong<br>
geomagnetic storm on Earth in the coming days,
possibly disrupting radio and satellite<br>
communications, scientists say.<br>
<br>
The unusual storm is not likely to wreak havoc
with personal electronics but may cause<br>
colourful nighttime auroras, or displays of the
Northern Lights, late Friday and early<br>
Saturday.<br>
<br>
"We don't expect any unmanageable impacts to
national infrastructure from these solar<br>
events at this time but we are watching these
events closely," said Thomas Berger,<br>
director of the Space Weather Prediction Centre
at the National Oceanic and<br>
Atmospheric Administration.<br>
....<br>
<br>
The National Weather Service has alerted power
grid operators and the Federal<br>
Emergency Management Agency, just in case.<br>
<br>
The strength of the storm pales in comparison to
major geomagnetic storms of years<br>
past, such as the 1859 Carrington event that
wiped out power across a swath of Canada.<br>
<br>
It is also weaker than a near-miss geomagnetic
storm in July 2012 that NASA scientists<br>
said could have knocked Earth's technology back
at least 150 years.<br>
<br>
That storm didn't cause mass damage because the
fast-moving energized particles were<br>
not directed straight at Earth.<br>
<br>
"The events that just occurred over the last 24
hours were Earth-directed, they are<br>
just not that big," said William Murtagh,
program c<br>
