1425 Stefan Burns “Can't Believe What Just Happened…”

EN English (FR IT PT SP)

20 Mar 2026

A significant solar storm is impacting Earth, with solar wind strength reaching 21 nanoTesla, four times the normal level. This has led to a series of natural disasters, including earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and cyclones. The storm could potentially cause disruptions to radio communications, power grids, and satellites, with the possibility of a G4 geomagnetic storm.

A strong solar storm, potentially reaching G4 strength, is expected to impact Earth in about an hour. The storm is a result of multiple solar events converging, including coronal mass ejections and a coronal hole. The impact could cause disruptions to Earth’s geophysical systems, including increased seismic activity.

A coronal hole in the sun’s southern hemisphere is shooting high-speed solar wind towards Earth, potentially affecting the planet’s energetic environment. This solar activity coincides with two significant earthquakes, a magnitude 6.6 in the Drake Passage and a magnitude 6.1 in Vanuatu, suggesting a possible connection between solar storms and seismic events. The speaker anticipates further seismic activity in the coming days due to the evolving nature of the coronal hole.

A coronal hole on the sun is connected to two significant earthquakes this year and is expected to return in a month. A coronal mass ejection from the far side of the sun was observed, and a sungrazer comet is expected to impact the sun, potentially triggering further coronal mass ejections. The sun’s magnetic field is currently experiencing significant fluctuations.

A solar storm is expected to impact Earth on the 21st, potentially causing stronger-than-anticipated geomagnetic storms. Hurricane Narelli, a category 2 cyclone, is currently affecting northeast Australia and may reintensify due to the solar storm and ocean heat. Flash flooding is also occurring in Hawaii due to a persistent Kona storm and recent volcanic activity.

A significant solar storm is impacting Earth, with a high-density plasma wave and a coronal hole high-speed stream. The storm is expected to intensify, potentially reaching G4 storm levels within 18-36 hours, with solar wind speeds reaching 650-700 km/s. This event is more significant than previous solar storms, with the potential for increased geomagnetic volatility.

A G3 to G4 solar storm is expected to impact Earth within 8 to 12 hours, potentially causing significant aurora displays, especially in northern latitudes. The storm coincides with the equinox and other significant events, including a major cyclone in Australia and a large earthquake. The speaker encourages viewers to take advantage of the weekend to rest and relax, and to disconnect from technology occasionally.
