One think I have been neglecting is building Faraday Cages. I don’t know if they’ll protect against something like this, I know they are recommended for
EMPs.
A project I’ve been putting off for too long.

I keep lots of 50 lb bags of malted barley, hops and yeast cultures... and a few kegs of Imperial Stout aging. It’s liquid bread.

From spaceweather.com without all the hype...

SOLAR WIND, INCOMING (UPDATED): A minor stream of solar wind is heading for Earth. ETA: April 1st. The gaseous material is flowing from a relatively small hole in the sun’s atmosphere, now facing our planet. Arctic auroras are likely when the solar wind arrives. Aurora alerts: SMS Text.

A planet sized hole has ripped through the surface of the sun letting out intense 1.8 million mph winds which could threaten our entire planet by the end of the week.

So that's what the trannie's "Day of Vengeance" will need to compete with. Talk about timing.

Now I know why I was guided to buy a house of brick with a basement.

My main house on the farm I built the basement with 125,000 lbs of concrete. Walls 12 inches thick with rebar buried in ground. I then set steel rafters on 16 inch center, installed steel bridge decking, and poured 6 inches of concrete with rebar welded together in a cage pattern connected to the rebar in the walls and floor, using 5000 psi concrete and fiber mesh. Thus, I have a 1500 sq ft Faraday cage with 10 ft ceilings.

Built it in the 1990’s. Now I understand why.

I am sure the WEF clown asshoes have a crew on making a “giant sunhole” in that cave over in Davos.

They can disappear into their underground black hole and depopulate the planet in one fell swoop.

So, maybe I’ll hold off paying the bills until next week.

A planet sized hole has ripped through the surface of the sun, intense 1.8 million mph winds, solar winds hurling towards our planet within the next 24 hours, potential worldwide power cut, technologies would cease to work, high-speed solar wind, mass Ejections strike the Earth they could cause geomagnetic storms, overwhelm our power grids and cause permanent damage..

...yawn...

Per Spaceweather.com

SOLAR WIND, INCOMING (UPDATED): A minor stream of solar wind is heading for Earth. ETA: April 1st. The gaseous material is flowing from a relatively small hole in the sun’s atmosphere, now facing our planet. Arctic auroras are likely when the solar wind arrives.

ANOTHER X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE: This is becoming routine. The sun just produced another X-class solar flare, the 7th of 2023. The X1.2-category explosion came from sunspot AR3256 near the sun’s southwestern limb:

Radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth’s atmosphere, causing a strong shortwave radio blackout over southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand. Ham radio operators may have noticed loss of signal and other propagation effects below 30 MHz for as much as an hour after the peak of the flare (March 29th @ 0233 UT).

A faint CME left the sun after the explosion. NOAA analysts have determined that it will miss Earth—no impact.

The real significance of this flare may be the number “7.” That’s the total number of X-flares in all of 2022. With today’s flare, the sun has already matched that total in 2023—and it’s only March.

This is yet another sign that Solar Cycle 25 is rapidly intensifying. If the trend continues, we could have nearly 30 X-flares by the end of 2023, an order-of-magnitude greater activity than only two years ago. Official forecasts are calling for Solar Maximum to arrive in 2024 or 2025. If so, there is plenty of time for the solar cycle to intensify even more; X-flares could become routine, indeed.

Apparently the 01% chance for an X-Flare is a little higher than the prediction. AR 3256 produced an X1.2 solar flare at 02:33 UTC early this morning (Mar 29). Coronagraph imagery shows a small coronal mass ejection (CME) leaving the blast site, but so far appears to be off the Sun-Earth line. Other than the brief radio blackout during the flare itself, no major impacts should be expected. Image below by the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO)

There are a million ways the world can end...

And it seems like all of them are getting posted here on Free Republic.
