Earth is bracing for a cosmic tsunami Tuesday night as tons of plasma from a massive solar flare head directly toward the planet.
The Sun's surface erupted early Sunday morning, shooting a wall of ionized atoms directly at Earth, scientists say. It is expected to create a geomagnetic storm and a spectacular light show -- and it could pose a threat to satellites in orbit, as well.

I was helping my brother move cars around yesterday around Fredericksburg Va. and the sun was going in and out from behind clouds and every time it did there was a 30-degree change in temperature within five minutes. Show me a man who thinks ANYTHING other than the sun has any effect on weather on this planet and I'll show you a man who spends his entire life indoors.

The Harvard astrophysicist quoted (Leon Golub) is an expert on the sun. How do I know? I graduated high school with him...and yes, in case you want to know, he had better grades in physics than I did.
We still keep in touch...

"This eruption is directed right at us and is expected to get here early in the day on Aug. 4," said Leon Golub of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. "It's the first major Earth-directed eruption in quite some time." Luke 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
