The Cannibal CME may cometh on the 13th

" A 'cannibal CME' might be en route to Earth. NOAA analysts suspect that two CMEs propelled into space by the X-class flares of Nov. 8th and 10th have merged into a single cannibalized cloud. It could deliver a glancing blow to Earth's magnetic field on Nov. 13th, producing minor geomagnetic storms."

Just spectacular timing with a grid drill going on at the same time. Almost makes me want to put on the tinfoil hat

I'll wear mine, if you wear yours!
The infrastructure is so old antiquated that the predictors are bound to get it right sooner or later....if they don't get tired of setting dates, that is.

J.R. "Bob" Dobbs will SAVE no one. Yer On yer own... Umm let's see some optimistic pep talk... uh... herm:Hey!! didi you ever notice that optimistic kinda has a mystic in it it? Well that's meaningless. Hopefully your not useless and know what you should do. (Or at least a small portion thereof,) Goodluck and God speed! "Hey is that an AMC Gemlin X?! COOL!"

I think you lost most of us with this one my friend.

Care to elaborate.. less cryptic this time?

I'm confused by the "cannibal" designation...?

comming soon to a real theater near u.

I figure it is because they merged into one wave/cloud.

But yes, that is an odd choice of wording.

Actually no; In looking back at that piece of prose, if you don't get it, I know who never made it quite past watching the Andy Grifftith show. It's fun to look back but helps no one with the future.

Alrighty.

Thank you for your contribution I suppose.

Does/did Bob Dobbs have anything to say about CME's? I met him in Halifax in like 2001-2002. He was speaking on JFK at some church hall myself and a friend of mine went to see what he had to say, very interesting dude. I would be interested to hear what he has to say on stuff like this.. The video from his talk in Hali is on youtube, I can even pick myself out when the camera pans the small audience.... lmao...
sorry thats almost completly off topic

Definition of cannibal is to eat one of you own kind.

This particular CME is the result of one flare "eating" the other or merging into each other. Probably where the wording came from and why it is called a cannibalized flare. According to the source.

It also said that it may produce minor activity which is meaningless to anyone below the poles, save a few people that may see some auroras. I highly doubt there will be much more than their description. But we shall see.

Either way, good find!

I am looking forward to the show, Thanks for the heads up.

Hmmm, this reminds me of this thread that has been classified as a hoax:

NASA To Have A BIG Announcement On November 13th!!

CME that will hit earth on the 13th
Grid drill on the 13th
and this Nasa hoax on the same day

...something smells fishy

I had completely forgot about that 13th hoax site.

Probably just dumb timing and nothing more.

Busy month we are in now I suppose though.

SpaceWeather is a little weird to me tonight- anyone else think its weird?

See, what makes me pay attention to that is the fact that the one that is hitting us today and a bit tomorrow is weakening the megnetosphere, then you have a possibility of one that could be magnetically linked to earth.... all in the next 24 hours... Hmm.

Just crazy timing with hundreds to thousands of people spread around and all taking part in a 2 day Grid drill starting today.
