Earth is bracing for a cosmic tsunami Tuesday night as tons of plasma from a massive solar flare head directly toward the planet.

The Sun's surface erupted early Sunday morning, shooting a wall of ionized atoms directly at Earth, scientists say. It is expected to create a geomagnetic storm and a spectacular light show -- and it could pose a threat to satellites in orbit, as well.

NASA scientists warned recently that high-energy electric pulses from the sun could cripple our electrical grid for years, causing billions in damages.

Guess I'll bring the dog in tonight...

The northern lights were visiable for a couple hours last night and may show up again tonight. Those who live in the far northern areas of the U.S. have that chance.

Well nothing happened last night place is still here and so am I dogs fine horse is fine and it is still going to be in the 100+ range today again not much changed. Oh still got to mow going to wait until it cools down just a little.

I don't know about last night but I think that solar flare reached
Southern Ok. today!
"Feels" like 110.
Of course being a desert Grunt from the Stumps this nice cool
weather should be a God send right?

Semper Fi.

The Garmin Oregon 400t has been receiving WAAS signal strength of between 8 and 15 feet accuracy for the last few days. We might be ok

Youd all be floored if iffin he showed his weebos,,,,,,,,,,HAHAHAHAHAHA,,,,,,,,Hick,

[SlingerDun]

weebos wobble but they dont fall down

[SlingerDun]

The European Space Agency just joined the global positioning party with EGNOS. It enhances existing GPS signals with considerable accuracy. I don't know if their technology reaches the west coast of America but ever since i uploaded EGNOS combined with WAAS, my average signal strength has improved quite a bit, a fix of within 7 feet in open country is pretty damn good for a civilian application :confused:
