Solar Storm of 2013

by Annie O'Dell of The Prairie Crone (15-Sep-2009)

The sun is like a teenager that hormonally goes into unexpected rage cycles called Sun Spots or "Solar Storms".   Watch out!  The next cycle could wipe out civilization as we know it.  The date predicted for this attack on the fabric of our lives; our "grid system" is 2013. 

Eruptions of energy and matter will escape from the sun and head for Earth.  Satellites, power grids that control communication, the electric power supply and GPS could be damaged.  Reported on CNN,  so severely could technology be wiped out it may take 3 trillion dollars and 10 years to get back civilization. “A single strong blast of "solar wind" can threaten national security, transportation, financial services and other essential functions.”

Last Month in Boulder Colorado, (SWPC), a panel of the best international experts, came to the conclusion this event will happen in May 2013 with 90 storms per day on average.  The Scientists talked on plans to ready the earth for these Solar Storms, and how to predict the exact time for them in the same way we do hurricanes or tornadoes. . The conclusion is that in studying the suns “hormonal swings” we can “shut down” and ready for the worst with least amount of earth damage. 

Recorded Solar Cycle Years we have already Expereinced

  • 1755
  • 1823
  • 1928
  • 1950
  • 2013

It is important to realize that as man kind has become more dependent on satellites, computers and technology; in reality our every day life existence has become more fragile.  We worry about cyber terrorist attack, but it seems it will be the Sun who is the terrorist.   Science is about creating a solution in preparation to protect the grid system we have become so addicted to.  In 1950's Solar Storm it was the wire system that suffered most.
AN EXPECTED RESPONSE FOUND ON INTERNET

“How big is the next solar storm or flare in 2012? Catastrophic?

I know most stuff about the 2012 and the Mayans but one has said that it is the end of the 4th era and entering the 5th. It was said that they predicted the last one ended with water and the next one is to be with fire. It just happens to coincide with the next solar peak. Did the Mayans actually even know about solar flares or activity and calculate to this one? If so could it cause mass destruction?” 

THE REAL PICTURE

It is important to realize we have experienced these solar storms before.  The problem is the amount of dependence man has put into satellites, computer chips, wires and defense systems based on a grid power system.
