=============================

The effects of an X-5 solar flare on local EM field readings have now been observed first-hand. Below are magnetometer readings using a 3-axis probe, recorded at 7 a.m. EST on March 8, 2012, in Washington, D.C.:

((15.19^2) + (86.66^2) + (49.22^2))^0.5 = 100.813 uT*

Similar effects were observed using an identical magnetometer in Colorado today, as well. Compare this reading to this morning's reading around 4 a.m. EST that equalled exactly 100.000 uT* in magnitude (http://www.wonksmedia.com/timeline.xls). The Earth's EM field spiked between the 4 a.m. and 7 a.m. readings, then leveled off within a range of 0.6-0.8 uT above the 4 a.m. reading, and is expected to return to normal baseline by March 10th. Along the East coast, the spike was roughly twice the magnitude of this morning's variation in readings as stated above. Review readings taken at Corbin, VA, and Stennis, MS, online at http://geomag.usgs.gov/realtime/ to confirm a similar pattern of fluctuation in EM field magnitude in the Eastern U.S. region.

Solar flares are classified as A, B, C, M or X according to the peak flux (in watts per square meter, W/m2) of 100 to 800 picometer X-rays near Earth, as measured on the GOES spacecraft. Each class has a peak flux ten times greater than the preceding one, with X class flares having a peak flux on the order of 10(-4) W/m2. Within each class there is a linear scale from 1 to 9, so an X2 flare is twice as powerful as an X1 flare, and is four times more powerful than an M5 flare. The more powerful M and X class flares are often associated with a variety of effects on the near-Earth space environment. Although the GOES classification is commonly used to indicate the size of a flare, it is only one measure.

To cause substantial power outages on the surface of the Earth, an X-class flare would have to be at least an order of magnitude greater than an X-5, which is certainly possible. In November 2003, the last solar cycle created an X-40...give to take (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXjkSZ4Wj6w), so imagine how catastrophic the impact would be on our electrical grid if the Earth's magnetic field remained at a null for an extended period of time during the peak of this solar cycle. An X-40 is (X-5 --> X-10 --> X-20 --> X-40) 8 times more powerful than this morning's X-5. If the Earth's EM field intensity is drastically reduced, multiply those effects by 100+...in other words, if we lose the Earth's EM field for an extended period of time, our modern civilization would not survive "The Event" intact.

Based on our current solar cycle - http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/SolarCycle/ - we are 'in the zone' for large X-class flares through the end of next year. There is no way to know at this moment based strictly on magnetometer readings whether the Earth's EM field will decline to dangerously low levels at some point during the next 12 months. Magnetometer readings remain within the normal range of variation as observed over the last four weeks here in D.C., even with today's spike; however, 'insider testimony/information' has suggested that the Earth's EM field would begin to decline in 2012, hence the sale of our second Prius last summer (reasoning coupled with losing parking availability at work...metro is our second car now) to acquire three magnetometers for direct observation, with daily readings taken since July 2011.

Technology has been developed by a trusted research colleague to offset local EM variation in the range of today's X-5; however, the electrical grid remains vulnerable to the effects of X-20+ flares; and extremely vulnerable to all X-class magnitude solar flares if the Earth's EM field drops off a cliff, which may or may not happen. We are all waiting to see exactly what will transpire over the next 12 months.

What I can state with certainty is Trifield (http://www.trifield.com/) has been selling magnetometers over the last few months like hotcakes. Obviously, we're not the only independent parties concerned about having the ability to independently monitor the Earth's EM field. If your colleagues want to save some money, simply direct them to http://justin.tv/altenergy2012 or http://kk4aei.blogspot.com, where a 24/7 live feed (occasionally kicked offline...) is available for independent monitoring. I can even watch it live on my Samsung Galaxy Note cell phone (5.3" screen)...very cool.

Permission is granted to repost this content in its entirety for outside review/consideration. The more eyes we have on Earth's EM field readings, the better. That way, if someone says the sky is falling, we will know if they are responding appropriately, or just blowing smoke to throw people out of kilter.

*NOTE: 100uT is a relative value, as the magnetometer readout was intentionally reset to 100 uT in early February, while the actual magnitude of Earth's EM field on the surface of the Earth typically ranges from 30-60 uT. The 100 uT setting was intended to help laypersons observing the readings via live Internet feed determine a relative percentage decline in the EM field over time by simply reviewing total magnitude EM values as recorded on the Excel spreadsheet linked above. In other words, a 5 uT decline would suggest a 5% drop in EM field intensity, a rough approximation of the actual value.
