New sunspot AR2822 exploded on May 7th, producing an M3.9-class solar flare--one of the strongest flares of young Solar Cycle 25. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the explosion near the sun's northeastern limb:""
"The shadowy wave emerging from the blast site is a "solar tsunami"--a swell of hot magnetized plasma about 100,000 km tall racing along the sun's surface at 250 km/s (560,000 mph).
A pulse of ultraviolet and X-radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth's atmosphere. This, in turn, caused a shortwave radio blackout over North America: map. Ham radio operators and mariners may have noticed strange propagation effects at frequencies below 30 MHz, with some transmissions below 15 MHz completely extinquished."
Yes...this explains why so many of us are feeling jittery and anxious. Solar Cycle 25 is taking off.....
Yes indeed...things are shifting BIG TIME.
Nothing is the same or ever will be...
The NEW is incoming!
