Default Re: Solar Storm heading our way??

Mmmm lots of recent Earthquakes lately....

Is it linked to this?

Sunspot 1026 emerges on the Sun -Spaceweather September 22, 2009

"Sunspot 1026 emerged yesterday to break a string of 19 consecutive spotless days. It's about as wide as Earth, which makes it an easy target for backyard solar telescopes. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) has measured the spot's magnetic polarity and identified it as a member of new Solar Cycle 24. Could this be a harbinger of more to come? (Apparently so.) Stay tuned. "

Looks bigger than the previous 1024
