Re: [CTRL] Major Solar Storm (Art Bell tonight)
-Caveat Lector- All this talk of CME's hitting earth in the past few days and nothing... Does anyone have any reports of these things actually hitting causing disturbences? Jamie THE SUN If you have been with us for any length of time, you know Stan and I don't get overly excited, but it's pretty hard to "maintain" when your hair is standing on end! We are hoping to arrange program time on Art Bell or Jeff Rense, or both, but this can't wait. You know how we talked last message about the sun having increased its magnetic field by 40% since 1964 and DOUBLED since 1901 and feel it has permanently changed our weather? Today's sun picture shows some of the largest potential for CME's we've seen. In past newsletters we discussed that when S-shaped filaments from a sunspot reconnects ACROSS THE SUN'S EQUATOR to another sunspot, there is a good chance of a CME. Today, the sun shows at least 6, possibly 7 of these reconnected filaments! If you want to look for yourself, go to it via the blinking Geophysics News on our home page and click on the blinking Disaster Warnings, or go directly there from our home page by clicking "Special Solar Event Alert: Go See!" Currently these spots are still about 4 days from being "earth-side", so we don't know yet where these probable CME's will be pointing. If they are pointing AT us, it may not be a happy day. Calculating their arrival time of 4 days, it could be as long as 8 days before protons from this event hit us. We are in the red zone which indicates a 60-100% chance of both CME's and M and X class flares within the next 48 hours. http://www.dxlc.com/solar/ Also from Jan's solar report: There was a CME on the 26th and "as the origin of the flare was right at the central meridian, any CME associated with it would have a very high probability of impacting the earth. The impact time could be sometime from late on June 28 to noon on June 29." Further, for today, the sunspot number is 310! This count is extremely high! At the VERY PEAK of Solar Cycle 19, there were five days of sunspots ranging from 316 - 355 during December 22-26, 1957. Also, October 28-30, 1957, the spot count was 317-334. Bear in mind, Solar Cycle 19 was The Worst solar cycle ever and we are not yet at the peak of Solar Cycle 23. Peak is currently expected Jan.-March 2000. We think this cycle will be a short and violent one. EL DIABLO Good grief, where do we start... Stan has been monitoring El Diablo so named as it is not an El Nino or a La Nina, yet exhibits characteristics of both. From our records, Stan kept an OTIS map from May 1996 just when things were getting ready for El Nino. Comparing that map, where the heating patterns were pretty well distributed both above and below the equator, ALL the heating now is shoved UP into the Northern Hemisphere. Comparing the Northern Hemisphere in 1996 to now, it is 85% HOTTER! Stan made a map showing the increases in heating so you can see for yourself what we are up against. This will be a bear cat well into next year. Rather than rechew the explanation Stan has written for you, here are the highlights, but be sure to read the rest of the data. It is very enlightening. Freaky, but enlightening: "All this data indicates the following conditions for the next 12 months in varying degrees: 1) Drought or unusually dry conditions: Japan, Alaska, most of the USA (some wet weather may occur in Nevada and south of there; and also, some summer storms may hit Florida coast and slightly north of there), most of Canada, Iceland, Europe, western Russia, Scandinavia, Central and southern Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea, Fiji, 85% of Africa, southern Greenland. 2) Ice melting with some flooding: Due to the increases in the thermal anomaly in the northerly latitudes, I suspect we will see increased polar ice melting in Siberia, Greenland and in northern Canada and Alaska. 3) Super rain-bearing storms in northern Australia (especially from Darwin to Gulf of Carpentaria), Southern California, Washington and Oregon, western Canada, India and Bangladesh. I suspect the NW USA, India and western Canada will get the worst storms." One last thing we must caution you about. Kris from Kansas sent us a prophecy by a Dr. Deagle heard on the Prophecy Club. Without repeating the whole thing, the important point is this. Many people will have put aside food and water in preparation for Y2K. Some folks will need their supplies and be _very glad_ for it, others will have an easier time of it, but we don't know for whom which situation it will be. The ones who did not experience problems are predicted to sell off their stored foods and supplies in disgust for only $.11 - $.13 on the dollar. Wise people waiting in the wings will happily snap up these bargains seeing their value. Other

Nothing's happening... Time to relax -- a CME takes 3 or 4 days to reach Earth, if it's actually headed directly this way. Light photons take only 8 minutes to reach Earth, but a CME is a plasma cloud of highly charged ions which travels much slower. No telling how strong it will be. If it affects the SOHO or Cassini spacecraft on the way, we'll have a warning which way the blast is pointed. Refer to the original post for reports of past CMEs, and the range of possible effects here on Earth. As Stan said last night (on with Art Bell), if a really big CME were to be pointed straight at Earth, it would cook the fish in the ocean -- and burn up all the crops in the fields -- on the near side of the planet. Another report claimed its total energy 'could' boil the Medeterranean Sea entirely dry in 60 seconds (if focused only in that one location). Earth would be 'fogged in' for years, if something similar were to happen. In March 1989, almost the entire electrical grid supplying the province of Quebec collapsed - in less than 2 minutes - due to powerful electrical currents that were induced into Hydro Quebecs electrical power lines during one of the strongest geomagnetic storms on record. Not to worry -- but I'd stay out of airplanes for the next few days. If I had a metal safe, I'd think about putting my computer (electronics, etc.) inside, out of harm's way. Now might be a good time to have a back-up electrical generator, so your refrigerator stays cold, etc. But then, nothing at all may happen (this time), who knows ? emergency power generators: http://theepicenter.com/tipoweek.html http://theepicenter.com/tow02077.html http://popularmechanics.com/popmech/homei/9803HIHIAM.html The current solar cycle ('Cycle 23') is an 11-year cycle, 'estimated' to peak around March 2000. Solar activity such as sunspots and solar flares will very likely increase, and accelerate global warming, hurricanes, volcanos, etc. The peak of Cycle 23 may last well into 2001.

Then who would pour billions into rebuilding their infrastructure bigger, better, newer than ever? This way all they have to do is retire Milosovic and a couple other guys and they're on the gravy train and all it cost them was some obsolete factories, a couple of bridges and whole bunch of decoys, with added luxury of the Kosovo problem now becoming NATO's problem and with Yugolsavia's honor intact and the VJ dripping with glory.
