Powerful Magnetic Explosion '3 Times Closer Than Normal' Discovered on Earth's Doorstep – STAN NOTE: Be sure to click the link addressing Coronal Mass Ejections and Their Increasing Threat Moving Forward. Variations in intensity of Solar wind can cause explosive disruptions to the Earth's magnetic field, which can cause localized EMPs. It's known that EMPs can be caused by CMEs and solar flares on the Sun...
Recently, it was discovered such disruptions can be caused by sudden increases in the velocity of the solar wind. These 'disruptions' are called re-connection events in the Earth's magnetic field. They can produce EMPs on the Earth - even on the side facing away from the Sun. In short, that means 'lights out' unless you're protected.
