Arch Crawford Interview - Expert Financial Analyst - that has been the top in the U.S. previously using Planetary Alignments. Predicting a Solar Kill Shot - November due to Alignments
UPDATE 11/12/13 - Two 'Cannibalized CME's to Impact Earth on 13th.
I interviewed Arch Crawford and expert Financial Analyst about his predictions for November 2013. Arch has been a top financial analyst since the 1960s. He uses astrology to predict what will happen in the markets and due to that he has been named a top analyst for a few different years in the markets.
He is predicting major events for November and due to the planetary alignments he is predicting a solar flare kill shot possibly happening on the 13th of November.
When you listen to the interview you will understand Arch is not predicting the solar flare happening off the top of his head. He is an expert at what he does.
He predicted 9/11 within a couple of days, all the past stock market crashes, wars, etc. since the 1960s.
He says November will set records in many different ways, it is going to be an intense month, as not seen before.
Is is a coincidence the U.S. government is doing a grid test on the 13th?
The sun has become very active all of a sudden too with 3 different X flares and multiple M class flares the last few days.
Must listen to interview to understand why he is predicting a solar kill shot. This is not a 'fear' based interview. Arch is getting the information out about what he sees happening with the planets and how it can affect us and getting the information out.
It is common sense to have some supplies on hand for any 'what if' events that could happen including a solar flare that could take out the grid.

X-Solar Flare/CME to hit Earth head on/directly tonight (7/13-14 /2012). Information and Links
Long duration X flare/CME
UPDATE 7/14/12 10:30 AM - From Spaceweather - CME has not arrived yet - "Still Waiting"
STILL WAITING FOR THE CME: The CME launched toward Earth by the July 12th X-flare has not yet arrived. However, we are still within the forecast window set by analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab. The cloud should hit at 09:17 UT plus or minus 7 hours on Saturday, July 14th
NASA and NOAA are giving out different info about it. NASA saying it could affect our power grid, NOAA saying "No big deal." Also different times are being given.
FYI - X-Flares travel much faster than other flares/CMEs, arrival time can be any where from tonight about 1 am to 6 am.
There are some having cell phone difficulties today. The ionospheres of the planet are high right now, from the flare, though the actual flare/CME has not yet hit us.
that is a site - that has lots of info. Look under magnetosphere and you can watch the "stand off" and the magnetopause position movie to see what is happening.
here is the chart for the x-flare - you can see it was a very long duration one, it was not quick. So it will affect us for quite some time.
here it is saying it is moving faster than expected so arrival is 5:17 UT (which est is 4 hours earlier).
a Good over all site.
Watch for very large quakes 6+ during and after the CME (coronal mass ejection - which is real fiery material the Sun has ejected).
Since it will be hitting in the middle of the night, you may want to un plug some of your electronics due to possible surges upon the electric grid from the magnetic.
Just something smart to do and it doesn't hurt to take precautions.
Massive solar flares are sometimes associated with CMEs which can trigger geomagnetic storms that have been known to knock out electric power for extended periods of time. According to Matthew Stein, many hundred thousands of miles of high voltage lines would act like an antenna drawing the electro-magnetic pulse from a solar flare toward thousands of transformers on the world's power grids. Many transformers could burn out and be difficult to replace.
The soft X-ray flux of X class flares increases the ionization of the upper atmosphere, which can interfere with short-wave radio communication and can heat the outer atmosphere and thus increase the drag on low orbiting satellites, leading to orbital decay. Energetic particles in the magnetosphere contribute to the aurora borealis and aurora australis. Energy in the form of hard x-rays can be damaging to spacecraft electronics and are generally the result of large plasma ejection in the upper chromosphere.
It seems this x-flare is going to hit us straight on. We have not actually had a complete straight on hit for a very long time. We have had glancing blows where the majority of the x-flare/CME goes to the side or above or below us.
There has been 7 X flares since 2000, they have all pretty much missed the Earth.
Watch for Auroras as far south as Alabama and Georgia etc. I may just get up in the middle of the night (but it is cloudy and suppose to stay raining here) to see if I can see any Auroras tonight.
FYI - here is a copy of an email I sent out on March 9th 2011 to my list. (which the Japan Fukushima quake happened 2 days later right after the flare hit. Though it was not an absolute direct hit, it was a glancing blow. The worst part of the flare did not hit the Earth.
we have had 11 M flares and now an X flare in two days, besides multiple C flares.
just something to be aware of.
We will be getting hit hard for days on our magnetic field. They have give out a warning to those in S. Africa to wear extra sunscreen due to radiation.
Thankfully the last X flare though Earth directed in the beginning went to the side of the Earth. The news said power outages could have been expected with a full head on hit.
Also I expect we will see large quakes due to the constant pressure on our magnetic field. Please understand our magnetic field is not what it used to be - 25% weaker.
Awareness is key. Everything is right in this link to watch (yes I have sent all these links previously, but doing it again so you don't have to look it up)
- but a very good magnetic field
The link I put in of the magnetic field to watch it, is no longer available. The real-time index was taken down a few months ago for some reason. That was the only site that was trust worthy in my opinion to watch what was happening with the magnetosphere. Now the only way to view it is through NASA, which I don't trust NASA's information as being full truth.
Anyway, doing as I always do.... just trying to inform people and give them information. Nothing to be afraid of, just the facts. So.. being aware is the key to knowing what is really going on.

Large M3 Solar Flare and Double CME arrival today. Electronics may be affected also large quakes possible due to pressure on Earth
Update - 2/23/11 - A large M8 Flare and CME occured Earth directed. Expected to reach and impact Earth on 1/24/12 - Even Commercial flights will be rerouted due to it expected to be the strongest flare since 2005 to impact Earth.
Update at bottom - video of magnetic field getting hit by the flare and CME on 1/22/12
Update at bottom - video of magnetic field getting hit by the flare and CME on 1/22/12
Even MSM has been "alerting" people about the CME expected today.
There was a large long lasting M3 Solar flare on the 19th of January. The solar flare had a double CME (coronal mass ejection) with the flare and both are Earth directed.
Here is NASA's animation showing the CME and the Earth impact.
Spaceweather has an alert on their site.
Here is the "Alert" and time line by Integrated Space Weather:Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab say strong geomagnetic storms are possible when the cloud arrives this weekend. Their animated forecast track predicts an impact on Jan. 21st at 22:30 UT (+/- 7 hrs). Aurora alerts: text, voice.The cloud is also heading for Mars, due to hit the Red Planet on Jan. 24th. NASA's Curiosity rover, en route to Mars now, is equipped to study solar storms and might be able to detect a change in the energetic particle environment when the CME passes by.
You can see from above the CME impact on the Earth is expected to last almost 24 hours.
That means the Earth will have pressure on it for a very long time. The magnetosphere has decreased in strength at about 25% over the last decades.
A couple of months ago Auroras were seen in the Southern states, I would expect this may happen again with this CME, due to Earth being in the bullseye of it.
Also last March there was an X flare the day before the Japanese quake on the 11th of March - here is the information on that from NASA:
This shows the pressure on the Earth causes quakes. There is a correlation between flares hitting the Earth and very large quakes happening.UPDATE: Earth's magnetic field is still reverberating from a CME strike on March 10, 2011 which resulted in a G1-class geomagnetic storm. Northern Lights have rippling over the US-Canadian border into states such as Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan. Solar wind conditions favor more geomagnetic storming in the hours ahead. Sky watchers, including those in the continental United States, should remain alert for auroras.Auroras Invade the US03.11.11
With this double CME and long duration M3 flare, I anticipate there may be a very large quake or two during or within a day or 2 after the flare impacts the Earth.
Here is where you can watch the magnetosphere while it is being impacted.
A site that has a huge amount of information and graphics on what is happening with the sun.
http://solarimg.org/artis/
Here is a video of the Solar Flare
Due to the CME - there may be interruptions in Cell phone service besides other electronics. It will all depend on the pressure on the Earth and how close the magnetosphere lays down close to the Earth. If the pressure is tremendous than the magnetosphere can even lay down where the satellites are. The K factor graphs show that information which is available on the ARTIS site, besides others.
Watch the skies tonight and see if you can see Auroras. Also it never hurts to make sure you know where your emergency supplies are for any reason.
UPDATE - Video of Magnetosphere getting hit by the flare and CME on 1/22/12
Update - 1/23/12 - Another large solar flare happened overnight - an M8 flare with a CME - it is Earth directed, but may go more North of the Earth.
ALMOST-X FLARE AND CME: This morning, Jan. 23rd around 0359 UT, big sunspot 1402 erupted, producing a long-duration M9-class solar flare. The explosion's M9-ranking puts it on the threshold of being an X-flare, the most powerful kind. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured the flare's extreme ultraviolet flash:
The Solar and Heliosphere Observatory (SOHO) and the STEREO-Behind spacecraft have both detected a CME rapidly emerging from the blast site. Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab estimate a velocity of 2200 km. There is little doubt that the cloud is heading in the general direction of Earth. A preliminary inspection of SOHO/STEREO imagery suggests that the CME will deliver a strong glancing blow to Earth's magnetic field on Jan. 24-25 as it sails mostly north of our plane

Video - CME hitting Earth on 9/17/11 - Partial Magnetosphere collapse
Video of a CME hit on the Earth on 9/17/11 - the Magnetic Field partially collapsed.
Last week the Earth was impacted by M and X class solar flares on the 9th and 10th of September, the information and video of that is here.
I have also brought to the attention of everyone watching this video, the fact that I have horrible headaches on the days the Earth is impacted by CMEs and flares. I have found it is a definite pattern of the pressure on the Earth resulting in my having headaches. I am not prone to headaches, but for the last 2 weeks, I have had horrible ones, where I have taken migraine aspirin a few times a day. If you have been having unusual headaches, notice the day they happen and see if it has also been days of the Earth getting hit by flares. Start noticing if there is a pattern, as I have.

M 9 CME from Sun Eruption - Video of it Hitting the Earth on Aug. 5th 2011. Has a K 8 factor of strength
A CME Sun Eruption took place on Aug 4th and it began hitting the Earth on Aug. 5th.
Spaceweather has the following information about it, saying it is the strongest CME to hit the Earth in decades.
A major geomagnetic storm is in progress following the impact of a CME on August 5th around 1800 UT.
Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab say that the CME impact may have strongly compressed Earth's magnetic field, directly exposing satellites in geosynchronous orbit to solar wind plasma. Stay tuned for updates on this aspect of the storm.
The arriving CME left the sun on August 4th, propelled by an M9.3-category eruption in the magnetic canopy of sunspot 1261.
Here is a graph showing the K index up to 8
Also to watch information about solar flares, this is a good overall site with information and charts.

Video of CME hitting the Earth on Aug. 5th 2011 - the hit on the Earth is still ongoing as I post this. The pressure on the Earth and the weakened magnetic field, I would expect there to be some large 6+ quakes today and/or tomorrow.
From NOAA - about this geomagnetic storm - they had contacted FAA/electric companies do to the strength of this geomagnetic storm

GEOMAGNETIC STORM: A geomagnetic storm is in progress. It began on August 5th around 1800 UT when a CME struck Earth's magnetic field. At its peak during the hours just after impact, the storm registered 8 on the 0 to 9 "K-index" scale of geomagnetic disturbances, making it one of the strongest magnetic storms in years. The subsiding storm will likely take many more hours to peter out, so high-latitude sky watchers should remain alert for auroras. Aurora alerts: text, voice.
NIGHT-TIME SOLAR RADIO BURST: The M9-class solar flare of August 4th produced a burst of shortwave static so powerful that receivers on Earth picked it up after sunset. "A RadioJove observer in Florida recorded the burst when the sun was 38 degrees below the horizon," reports amateur radio astronomer Thomas Ashcraft. Ashcraft's own radio telescope in New Mexico recorded the event 1 hour and 54 minutes after sunset:

Largest and Longest CME ever recorded from Sun on June 7 2011 - Expect Large Quakes and possible utility disruptions, if Earth directed
Yesterday the Sun released it's largest and longest CME (coronal mass ejection) ever seen. When you watch the video from NASA Stereo website, you will see it started at 6:40 UTC and did not end until after 1pm UTC. That is a lot of fiery material spewed off the sun.
A German paper is warning everyone that cell phones, electricity etc. may be going down due to it.
Spaceweather says it will hit the Earth on the 9th of June.
On NASA'S Integrated Space Weather site - it shows it as not being Earth directed but being directed away from Earth.
So now the question is..... is it Earth directed or not?
This is an excellent site for all kinds of information all in one place.
Let's hope the CME was not Earth directed, as it would hit us very hard and who knows what the Magnetosphere would do. There would be large quakes from this.
This video is great of the CME - as it shows the different camera angles and how it was seen from various perspectives.

NASA Not One Picture of X flare that Happened 3/9/11. What are they Hiding? Did a CME come off at the same time?
NASA hides information all the time! Perfect example is they stopped all the photos of the X Flare that happened yesterday (3/9/11). They have pictures right before it happened and then skipped to pictures 11 hours after it now. What Bull Shit! What are they hiding?
They are now not letting people know if a CME was released at the same time as the flare! Why?
I can tell you NASA always hides information, they constantly photoshop the sun pictures. All of us who watch the sun know that and we can see it. They also stop the pictures when something is happening. Many times they go to "Bake out" when people see an anomaly around the sun, all of a sudden all the information and pictures of the sun goes down throughout NASA's sites!
Don't believe me?
Go to this site - WOW - somehow the pictures stop at the 20:00 hour time (which the X flare happened at 23:23).
http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/realtime-images.html
Go to this site - again pictures stop at 20:00 hours and then start again on 3/10/11 at 10:00
http://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/beacon/
Also go to this site - all the data for Solar is skipped for the same time and any pictures showing the X Flare is again skipped WITH the Data in if a CME was released at the same time!
http://iswa.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov:8080/IswaSystemWebApp/index.jsp?clear=1
Here is the graph of the Flare - in the past 2 days we had 11 M Class Flares - multiple C Class Flares and the X Flare last night.
Be aware our magnetosphere is 25% weaker now and we are going to be getting hit hard for a few days now. The best site to watch the flares on the magnetosphere is this site - which is a Japanese site (that is why it is a good site)
http://www2.nict.go.jp/y/y223/simulation/realtime/index.html
So I have a question: WHAT ARE YOU HIDING NASA? Besides that how can anyone believe a single thing you release?
As I see it NASA never releases information of things people should possibly prepare for to protect themselves! In fact they will do the opposite! They try to keep people stupid and without information with real events. Just like they have now taken the WISE telescope off line, just as they found a Brown Dwarf Star and Comet Elenin is coming.
Oh another government entity Hides public information all the time too! That one is the USGS - the Earthquake site! They will take off Earthquakes all the time and they do NOT report all the Earthquakes! In fact there are many more Earthquakes happening at Yellowstone than they are putting on the Earthquake site.
This proves even those Government organizations that are suppose to give people information constantly changes and hides information from the people! Is there one government organization that actually gives people the truth? Yeah, I know very silly question! Why would I expect honesty from the U.S. government?
Is this the Governments attitude about everything? Is this the way they conduct the business of the U.S. in thinking "People Can't Handle the Truth"?
They are now not letting people know if a CME was released at the same time as the flare! Why?

X Class Solar Flare just happened, besides 10 C Class Flares and 1 M Class Flare - Happened All Today!
UPDATE 2/16/11 -Click this for NASA Issued Alert for CME - Time - Expectations.
The Sun sure has been busy.
Today we got an X Class Solar Flare, it has been since 2006 from my understanding, since a X Class Flare has happened.
Besides the X Class Flare, we also had a M Class Flare and 10 C Class Flares - ALL Today! This does not include the M 6 Flare from yesterday.
All the flares are Earth directed.
What does that mean?
In about 3 to 4 days you can expect the Earth to be getting hit hard.
Our magnetosphere has weakened over the last few years and it will definitely be stressed out in about 3 to 4 days.
You can watch the impact of the solar flares on our Magnetosphere and the Earth at this site.
http://www2.nict.go.jp/y/y223/simulation/realtime/index.html
Since we have a weakened magnetosphere, it may be a good idea to unplug electronics in a couple of days. Also watch the above linked site to know when we are getting impacted.
Here is a video someone put together on the X Class Flare - Watch to the end - it shows it. WOW -
Also you will find large earthquakes most of the time, accompany hard hits on our magnetosphere, so don't be surprised if there are some 6 + magnitude quakes during this time either.
I just wanted to get this information just to make people aware. Nothing to get worried about, but simply good information to have.
Update - Spaceweather now has up the fact there was an X Class flare - they said, besides the flare the sun hurled CME towards the Earth also.
X-flares are the strongest type of solar flare, and this is the first such eruption of new Solar Cycle 24. In addition to flashing Earth with UV radiation, the explosion also hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) in our direction. The expanding cloud may be seen in this movie from NASA's STEREO-B spacecraft. Geomagnetic storms are possible when the CME arrives 36 to 48 hours hence. Stay tuned for updates.

A solar flare is an explosion on the Sun that happens when energy stored in twisted magnetic fields (usually above sunspots) is suddenly released. Flares produce a burst of radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum, from radio waves to x-rays and gamma-rays. [more information]
Scientists classify solar flares according to their x-ray brightness in the wavelength range 1 to 8 Angstroms. There are 3 categories: X-class flares are big; they are major events that can trigger planet-wide radio blackouts and long-lasting radiation storms. M-class flares are medium-sized; they can cause brief radio blackouts that affect Earth's polar regions. Minor radiation storms sometimes follow an M-class flare. Compared to X- and M-class events, C-class flares are small with few noticeable consequences here on Earth.
UPDATE - 2/15/11 - How typical - NASA took out the pictures of the CME and X class Flare on their Soho site of the Sun!
