How did I miss this!! Another strong Solar Flare is about to hit the earth at about mid-day today March 8th.
The largest solar flare in five years is racing toward Earth, threatening to disrupt power grids, GPS and flights, while also putting on a brilliant aurora display.Without making some dire predictions usually a week to a month later a large scale Earth Quake occurs on earth. We will see what happens with this one.
The sun erupted on Tuesday March 6th, and the effects should start smacking Earth later today, according to forecasters at the US Space Weather Prediction Center. They say the flare is growing as it speeds outward from the sun.
"It's hitting us right in the nose," said Joe Kunches, a scientist for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.The solar storm was likely to last through Friday, but the region that erupted could still send more blasts our way, Kunches said. He was predicting brilliant auroras. Check out this link The sun when it burps is scary.
