#internet outages

[thebongomediaempire]

Kids, this is Bongo.

Pay attention - your life may depend upon this.

A series of coronal mass ejections from the Sun erupted a little under a week ago and the effects of which are scheduled to start hitting the Earth sometime around 4:00 p.m. eastern time. I'm in Florida, and the smallest bit is going to hit sometime around 4:00 there will be a relative pause for a few hours, and then there will be an extended slap to the Earth.

These CMEs have the ability to disrupt satellite communication, electrical systems and networks, and internet systems. Your phone may not work. If it starts getting hot, take the battery out and put it someplace away from anything flammable.

The second of the cme's that will hit will be sometime around 4:00 to 5 hours later. These are going to be extremely energetic, raising radiation levels on a, b, and gamma levels. Also, the electromagnetic discharge may be enough to start setting fires. If there is a fire near you please get to a safe spot. Animals, the tectonic plates, and Tides may be affected. A CME is being blamed at this point for a power outage in Scotland last week.

If this is a national or multinational electrical event, you may want to disregard the rest of this message because you're going to be on your own.

For more information, download the Solar Dynamics Observatory app from your app store.

Good luck, everybody. Keep thinking happy thoughts. - Bongo

Cell phone networks are down all throughout the United States, including WiFi through those cell phone networks

The flow of digital information through fiber-optic cables lining the sea floor could be compromised by climate change. That's according to new research published in the journal Earth-Science Reviews by scientists from the United Kingdom’s National Oceanography Centre and the University of Central Florida. They found that ocean and nearshore disturbances caused by extreme weather events have exposed “hot spots” along the transglobal cable network, increasing the risk of internet outages.
