A G1-class geomagnetic storm was underway on June 26, 2022. The reason for the storm is a crack that has opened in Earth's magnetic field, allowing solar wind to enter the magnetosphere.
Immense cracks sometimes develop in Earth's magnetosphere and remain open for hours. Solar wind can pour through the gaps to fuel bright displays of Arctic lights.
Our magnetic shield takes the brunt of space storms, but some energy slips through its cracks, sometimes enough to cause problems with satellites, radio communication, and power systems.
Now, this time the A G1-class geomagnetic storm won't do any damage to satellites, radio communication, and power systems but it is just a matter of time a "killshot" will be triggered by a super solar flare. It has happened before and soon or later it will happen again.
Remember the solar storm of 1859—known as the Carrington Event - was a powerful geomagnetic solar storm during solar cycle 10 (1855–1867). It created strong auroral displays that were reported globally and caused damage to electric equipment worldwide, which at that time consisted mostly of telegraph stations. The geomagnetic storm was most likely the result of a coronal mass ejection (CME) from the Sun colliding with Earth's magnetosphere and induced one of the largest geomagnetic storms on record on September 1–2, 1859.
A severe geomagnetic storm struck Earth on March 13, 1989 and caused a nine-hour outage of Hydro-Québec's electricity transmission system. The storm began on Earth with extremely intense auroras at the poles. The aurora could be seen as far south as Texas and Florida.
The Halloween solar storms were a series of solar flares and coronal mass ejections that occurred from mid-October to early November 2003, peaking around October 28–29. One of the solar storms was compared by some scientists in its intensity to the Carrington Event of 1859.
The solar superstorm a Carrington-class CME of July 2012 was an unusually large and strong coronal mass ejection (CME) event that occurred on July 23 that year. It missed the Earth with a margin of approximately nine days. The region that produced the outburst was thus not pointed directly towards the Earth at that time. The strength of the eruption was comparable to the 1859 Carrington event.
In 2013, Edward A. Dames, Major, U.S. Army (ret.) well known for his remote viewing capabilities, stated that he is very concerned about unprecedented events that will take place in the near future which will affect the whole world.
Edward A Dames - Quote from 2013: "I am far more concerned with a global pandemic breaking out, concomitant with a worldwide economic collapse, and leading to a devastating solar flare hitting the planet."
So far he has been right, We have experienced the global Covid 19 pandemic, a global economic collapse is unfolding right now, so will his 3rd prediction also come true and can we expect a "killshot" that knocks out all modern day communication and power systems?
And although Edward A. Dames 3rd prediction points to a devastating solar flare it is not unthinkable that, with the ongoing turmoil in the world in mind, the danger of a “killshot” will come of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) generated by the detonation of a high-altitude nuclear weapon instead of devastating solar flare hitting the planet.
