I forgot to mention one important tidbit. This NASA video explains more: kzread.info/dash/bejne/houe1ruMgs-1haw.html Solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CME) are NOT the same phenomenon. Solar flares are basically photons that reach us in 8 minutes. CMEs are charged particles that take days to reach Earth This magnetic storm was caused by the CME and not the flares. So even though the flare might have been super powerful (e.g. x30) it wouldn't affect the magnetic field at all and only have effects on the ionosphere which can affect radiocommunication but will not result in aurora or major magnetic anomalies on the surface such as busted transformers I noticed a lot of comments talk about the solar flare power (e.g. usually expressed as X45 such as the one for Carrington event) - but this doesn't tell us about the magnetic effects and the powerful aurora. This event did include a solar flare (a few actually) but they were not as impressive as the 5 CMEs that followed. Lastly, solar flares are mostly an issue for astronauts and satellites, not so much for us here on Earth. CMEs are an issue for everything as these are highly charged particles traveling super fast so...tl;dr solar flares and CMEs sometimes happen together, sometimes they don't, but they're a different phenomenon with different effects

I work at NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center (the folks who put out the WSA-Enlil heliosphere model output that you showed). It has been estimated that the Carrington Event would have registered Dst (an index that provides information about the strength of the ring current in the magnetosphere) of somewhere in the range of -800 to -1750 nanotesla (nt) had we been measuring it back in 1859. Lower Dst corresponds to a larger geomagnetic storm and a more energetic event. The lowest Dst recorded for this recent event was -412nt, which is ~2x-4x smaller than the Carrington Event. So significantly smaller. Basically, not all G5/Kp9 storms are created equal, and perhaps we (at SWPC) need to introduce G6. There is also a consideration that needs to be made for the duration. The longer the storm persists, the more energy is dumped into our upper atmosphere.

Are there any steps on an individual level we as citizens could do to protect our electronics when we get a G5 warning? I feel like we should be helping, for example by not using as much electricity so there's less load on the electrical lines or something. Also, I've heard of make-shift Faraday cages being used to protect devices placed inside but I have no idea if they work in reality? I am not a formally educated person so perhaps what i am about to say is silly but I'm also concerned about phones that have induction coils for charging potentially getting fried just from the electrical charge in the air from such an event (if that's actually possible and I haven't misunderstood how the tech works) Should we be unplugging what we can of our electrical devices during G5 storms in your opinion?

I agree, there’s simply not enough empirical data from the Carrington event to say how it compares to the one we just experienced. The instruments simply didn’t exist back then, and we still have lines which I believe are comparable to telegraph lines (old-school telephone lines in rural areas that would have been affected if this storm were as bad. Simply knowing the size of the sunspots isn’t enough, there’s the velocity of the solar wind, amount of material spewed by the CME, whether this was more of a glancing blow and 1885 was a direct hit etc. Not to mention that there is evidence in nature that the Miyaki event was even more powerful than the Carrington event. Don’t get me wrong, it was an impressive event and I’m very glad it wasn’t stronger, or we potentially would not be watching Anton videos right now. It’s also possible that this sunspot group might survive the trip around the sun and return in 2 weeks, let’s wait and see what happens.

to people saying that it wasnt a carrington event because we still have electricity and nothing fried, as an electronics engineer, I can assure you that modern transmission lines are built very differently from 19th century telegraph lines. and even in the last 20 years since the last major event, everything from our electric grid to household electronics and cellphones have undergone all kinds of improvements and hardening against stuff like this. despite what you may have seen in popular media, even an actual emp intentionally detonated over the US with the intent to do harm, is unlikely to cause any serious damage to our critical infrastructure. that being said, I'm not saying that it _was_ a carrington event. i'll leave that to the experts for that sort of thing. I'm just saying from my own area of expertise in electronics, I wouldnt expect a modern carrington-like event to cause nearly as much drama as what you hear on tv, or even compared to what happened in 2003. Improvements _have_ been made. edit: to be clear, what i said about emps was to be taken separately from what i said about carrington-like events, but i'm not the most eloquent person out there. i was trying to make a comparison to the most extreme example of a damaging em event and I should've added more emphasis to the term "critical infrastructure". your 50 year old electric grid around your small town that never does infrastructure work doesnt count sadly, nor does the wiring in your house, nor the made in china electronics in your pocket. it was not my intent to imply that these things would survive a weaponized emp. but it wouldnt be the apocalyptic scenario you've no doubt seen on tv and read in the youtube comments section either. as for the topic of the video and carrington-like events, i stand by the statement that it would be significantly less impactful than what occurred in 2003 thanks to improvements in our infrastructure and changes in technology. also, the idea of a 50 year old electric grid is a bit of a foreign concept for me, since i live in florida. edit 2: my degrees are in both computer and electrical engineering. i have the same core educational background as the electrical engineers that work on the power grid, with some additional specialization in computer science and low voltage electronics. that being said i do not have the experiential background that comes from working in that field, and i agree that counts for a lot, but many of my peers and friends are electrical engineers that have gone on to such careers and we still talk.

For the first time in my nearly 60 years, the weather was favorable during a geomagnetic storm, and I got to see it! From our vantage point away from city lights near The Dalles, Oregon, USA, most of the activity seemed to be centered to the north and slightly east. Despite clear skies, it all looked a hazy gray. Most of the time I could only make out one or two stars in Cassiopeia. With just a fingernail of waxing moon setting we could still see to walk around, and there were no shadows like happens with moonlight. Just hints of green or magenta in the sky by eye. We had been told that a camera would really make a difference in what we saw, and that was certainly a fact. Cameras showed vivid colors of all sorts. Green, red, magenta, orange, yellow, but by eye they were all mixed together making a diffuse white light. The sky was only truly clear to our southwest. When I looked away somewhere else, the previously viewed area would be very different. Great curtains of green changing to magenta. A big knot of red overhead for a time and then gone when I looked a few minutes later.

As an electronics engineer I get frustrated by the lack of understanding of how and why these events affect cables. There is talk here in the comments about 'shielded wires', but copper shielding can only keep out electrostatic induction and maybe very fast magnetic spikes; a magnetic storm induces voltage into a cable magnetically regardless of any practical shielding. Why can magnetic storms damage the grid? Mostly because they can induce DC (or slowly changing DC) into a long cable. This can be in common mode, to ground, or between cables, and it is only when it is differential, such as between the cables carrying the three phases of the grid, that it flows through transformers and saturates the cores, resulting in the transformer AC losses shooting up and overheating them and burning them out. Mostly the cables for the three phases on the grid run physically in parallel and quite close, which helps reduce the differential induced, and frequent crossing over of the cables at regular spacing has been suggested as a way of balancing out the induced slow DC voltages - exactly as 'balanced' audio cables are twisted to cancel induced low frequency signals called hum, induced magnetically from mains power environments. I guess crossing over is not easy at very high voltages. 'Hardening' the transformers, by making them oversized so that they can take the DC plus the AC magnetic field, would be another way to avoid them burning out, but this in clearly costly and wasteful. Additionally DC voltages may be induced from end to end of the cables, resulting in high current voltage difference between these and ground. This will not flow in the transformer and cause saturation but may cause problems if it is big enough. I have read that the recent events caused 120A to flow in some power cables to ground - a big current, but easily carried by big cables. The size of differential induction thus depends on the rate of change of the magnetic field, it's direction, and the separation of the cables that creates the loop through which the magnetic flux flows, countered by crossing over the cables regularly. Nuclear EMP (electromagnetic pulse): There is a huge difference between a magnetic storm and a nuclear-caused EMP. A magnetic storm will cause very slow changes of magnetic field; over seconds or minutes arising from ionospheric disruption. This can only induce tiny voltages in the short conductive paths of a computer or a chip and so is unlikely to be a problem for them. The EMP event starts with a VERY fast spike as the explosion blasts the charged particles in the ionosphere out of place. The rise-time of this change can be microseconds or even nanoseconds, followed by two phases of slower changing magnetic field, all with different effects on different things. The fast spike can induce high voltage into a short cable, or even into an electronic chip, and so it is the nuclear EMP that threatens to kill your car or your phone. A slow change of magnetic files will only affect long cables and not touch electronic devices. Because it it so fast, the initial EMP change of field can be opposed by a highly electrically conductive box, ideally of thick copper, in which the induced currents generate an opposing field. This has no relevance to slowly changing magnetic fields as it is not possible to enclose a long cable in such a box, but it can protect your phone. However, aluminium foil, while it might help, is not really thick enough, and the oxide insulating surface means it is less likely to form a short-circuited loop around your device. 'Hardening' of electronic devices against EMP is a matter of primarily reducing conductor path lengths to minimise induced voltage, along with using devices that can take high voltages briefly. Valves or 'tubes' were much more resistant than semiconductors as they operate at hundreds of volts compared to volts or fractions of a volt of transistors. A valve radio might survive an EMP blast. The fast pulse from a nuclear EMP might behave strangely, as can lightening, which because of its extreme rate of change makes it propagate half as electrical current and half as electromagnetic wave. It can also induce ionisation in the air nearby readily by capacitive coupling; demonstrations of fluorescent tubes glowing without apparent source of power (since the days of Tesla) rely on this high frequency ability to ionise gases. Lightening can strip the insulation off a cable at it travels, or jump gaps, take unexpected courses, or induce voltages into metal objects close by (I have witnessed these things in my home!) The magnetic storm should not threaten small devices, unless they are connected to long cables, because it's rate of change is many orders of magnitude smaller. Optical fibres carry most data now, undersea or underground, and are immune from induced voltage, BUT they carry a power cable alongside to power the repeaters. Induced voltages in this could burn out the repeaters, or cause current to flow and burn out the cable, causing damage to the whole encased fibre plus power line. Thus it takes the right direction of field, the right rate of change of field (rapid), and the right induction loop area to cause a catastrophe from a magnetic storm, as well as a powerful enough disruption from a CME. Regarding the 1859 Carrington event, telegraph cables were thin and sparks would fly to ground or go through the operator, possibly causing fires. There were no power transformers to suffer saturation. Wire fences were steel wire, resistive, and long, and so prone to catch fire through resistive heating from induced flow of current returning through ground.

Absolutely bang on. Delta or "Rate of Change" makes a huge difference. When solar flux spikes and pullsback suddenly, depending what range level that flux occurred, can sometimes create large earthquake(s). However, if the earth experiences continual Class X flares, one after another, the energy input to the earth may be elevated, but the delta is not, as it becomes too steady and thus no large earthquake(s). These are my observations.

The universe revolves around magnetics to the point where we barely grasp. They flow through every planet that exists and is why our planet spins. The scale is just mind blowing. Everything we build, even all life, is bombarded by daily by these effects and some materials simply do that better than us water based being. There are also many atoms of energy we dont yet understand. It takes physical mountain size projects to even acknowledge they exist for us to study. For which they pass through all matter like nothing is even there as they travel across the universe. Though not specific to explain your problem as its off the top of my head recalling information. Maybe the picture of grander scale of the universe could help narrow down your anomalies.

Annie here, There is an additional factor not often mentioned which is that we have a polar excursion event ongoing, and rapidly speeding up. Along with the movement of the earths magnetic pole, is the earths magnetic field itself, which has a field strength which is decreasing along with the polar excursion. The magnetic field is therefore not apparently buffering the Solar energy upon the Earth, as much as it has done . This allows the component of the aurora which shows up as red, to reach down close to earth, and reach closer to the equator . This lowering of the magnetic field has an additional effect, and so I have been wondering therefore why there was not much damage ... and I am glad that you have spoken about this. The sunspot responsible for this, is rotating around the back of the Sun, and may well appear again ... or not .. but if it does .. it will retain its designation number just as previous reappearing sunspots do. At the moment another group of sunspots are appearing which are highly active as well.

​​​@@OverAndOverAndOverThat's just not true. And regardless, the point I think you are missing, along with Anton, is that a mere x5.8 flare caused record auroras worldwide. By comparison, the last event that caused Aurora as far south as Puerto Rico was an x40. That's a logarithmic scale so we are talking tens of thousands of times stronger. The simple fact of the matter is that our magnetic field got totally rocked by a relatively weak flare - indeed, very likely due to the ongoing geomagnetic excursion. Translation: our magnetic Field is weaker than ever before. This is clear evidence that we are further along into the upcoming magnetic pole shift than anyone had realized. Everyone should really start educating themselves on what's coming and start getting prepared to operate without power if indeed a bigger flare comes our way.

How can the observable universe be larger than the time it takes light to travel over the age of the Universe? This is because the universe has been expanding during this time.

Seconds after the line finished, all hues of red/orange/yellow spread out ward from the red line, which ended up looking like looked the sky was cut.

I actually saw auroras in the sky by my house on may 10th, and I live in the Pacific Northwest. And let me tell you, it was insane.

It was right above my house in western Washington east of 405, it was spectacular! I got epic pics.

Someone told me they were visible at Joshua Tree National Park - that is in Southern California. Unheard of.

It may not have been a Carrington Event, but it was the first time that we had ever seen an aurora directly overhead- breath-taking.

Love your videos keep up the great work

THANK YOU for this interesting video. As usual, I learned a lot.

Anton. You are the best. And yes, I agree, as an old Scoutmaster, "Be Prepared".

I’m in Idaho and the light were absolutely amazing! Watching the colors flicker across the sky was something I never thought I’d see.

Thank you for your service.

Educational and entertaining ! You are the best ! Thank you !

I lived in Alaska for nearly 60 years, and have seen the Aurora countless times. I, and many others, insist that we can "hear" the lights, as a quiet "whishing" sound. I have always wondered if these are actual sound waves, or possibly an interaction between the charged particles and the neurons in the brain. Maybe it's even a delusion brought on by the motion of the lights and we want to think that they are really making the sound. Has anyone ever done a study about this?

Now you have sparked my curiosity, probably, maybe, sound waves but I don't really know

There's another thread in the comments discussing it, which started with "Fun Fact". You're not delusional, as they do produce a cranking sounds... Crazy! 😊

You can clearly hear it with special radio equipment. It can sound like radio noise, rain falling on a metal roof, or birds tweeting. But a lot of people up north swear to hear it with their own ears on cold silent nights, describing it as a crackling and whishing sound. The Sami name for aurora, guovssahasat, means "light that you can hear". I read an article about scientists in Norway who have a hypothesis that electromagnetic waves might cause audible sound from vibration of small things, maybe even hairs. It's a difficult phenomenon to study, but they're on it.

I think it makes sense that electric plasma in the ionosphere could make some sound. If you ever get a plasma ball from a novelty toy store like Spencer's gifts, and put your ear near a plasma ball toy, it does make a bit of sound. It's like a fuzzy hummy sound, because they are like a tiny Tesla coil in a glass sphere.

​@@ximonoif there are ice crystals in the upper atmosphere, they might be vibrating or rattling together in the air.

my friends and i were able to look up into the zenith (there's a good few photos of it from around the world on the _May 2024 solar storms_ wikipedia page), and all of us remarked how if a carrington or bigger event happened in early human history, that would definitely make people instantly invent angels if they hadn't got round to it already - especially if such an event had induced currents in metal tools or weapons lying near each other, suddenly your barn is on fire and there are weird godlike apparitions in the sky, _obviously_ smiting you with great wrath. The next week, you've founded a monastery, and are living as a hermit in a cave - out of line of sight from the sky, just to be safe.

Great video. I was wondering what's going on. Sometimes you sense things and can't put a finger on it. Thank you, Anton.

Thanks Anthon!!

From one stranger to another, stay strong Anton, we appreciate you.

I have an app that alerts me when the Aurora is visible from here (almost never). This event became the "Why didn't you wake me!" event from a lot of friends and neighbors and the "Why did you wake me?" event from three of my family members.
