Solar flares are here, everyone unplug your dryer!


Turns out we have exceptionally high solar activity right now, with a category 4 solar flair expected to impact the planet, potentially affecting satellite communications, electronics and power grids.

Of course, if history is any guide the news is absolutely over excited over this, at best those in the northern states may see pretty lights at night.  I was particularly amused this afternoon at a CNN weather person recommending you unplug your dryer just to be safe.  I mean, is that really the most important appliance in his house?  🤣

Also, kind of off topic, if you have binoculars or a telescope with the right solar filters you can catch a glimpse of the dark spots on the sun associated with this CME.  Amazing to imagine that it is about 15-16x wider than the earth.

You really are stubborn ... 😊

Did you ever stop to consider that perhaps a conversational post within an audio site about solar activity and the possible need to unplug electrical appliances wasn’t the appropriate place for that conversation? And for that matter, that possibly an audio site isn’t an appropriate forum for it?

Are you the OP of audiogon ?

Did you ever stop considering that the CME and the solar flare could be really a doom event ?

Could you consider that reading my articles suggestions about solar flare was not inappropriate?

And could you consider that if i am rational i am free to post about the matter of a thread without being attacked by you and some others who POSTED ONLY HATEFUL remarks ?

 

See it in the face : you hate someone, you harassed him with no reason for months ( it is why i said that you must be an idiot) and you came in this thread and  seeing  my post about CME danger which i lived through really in quebec electrical apocalypse by the way ( you did not experienced this by the way ) then  as you did for months you attacked my character ...

You act as an idiot or as a troll what can i do ?

I reply to those who attack me sorry ...

You stop mocking or attacking my posts WITH NO RATIONAL ARGUMENT ..If not i will explain how and why you act as you act ...

Does anyone actually read the tripe he posts? There is enough hot air there to launch 100 dirigibles. I suppose mahgister's  posts might be useful if you are constipated.
