How long does it take for the "effects" to hit earth?
Anyone?

Help. I know someone out there knows this answer!

not sure about how long but i believe it matters if we are in the direction of the flare

sorry if this has already been posted but i just saw it and thought it was interesting.

UPDATE: Several readers have noticed that the doomed comet was actually a string of doomed comets, plural. Click here for a Youtube video posted by Kurt McNamara, and here for a sequence of labeled diagrams from Dirk Peeters.

A large CME is headed for us according to Space Weather... It should reach us by the 17th... They say it could cause some storms...

INCOMING: This morning, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory recorded a halo CME emerging from the vicinity of sunspot 1054: movie. The cloud appears to be heading toward Earth and it could spark geomagnetic storms when it arrives on or about March 17th. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras.

If by "They" you mean my X, then I'd say yes... someone got me. But I survived like the warrior I am. Spiritually that is....

Man, it is HOOOOT in southern California right now, and supposedly the worst of it hits tonight and tomorrow...

The reason I've been quiet is because I've been deep in my lab experimenting with frequencies and a bit of strange experiences. When I'm ready, I'll share... It's quite complicated and perhaps should have been given to someone not so dumb with math... But it was given to me... So, I'm on it.

LOL... Curious, Jonesy? ????
