Will the Solar Storms Set to Hit Earth Affect Motor Vehicles?

Three large explosions from the Sun over the past few days have prompted U.S. government scientists to caution users of satellite, telecommunications and electric equipment to prepare for possible disruptions over the next few days.

No, the Earth's magnetic field will protect motor vehicles from any EM pulses. Satellites are usually the worst affected because being in space, they are less protected.

That article is so paranoid, it's laughable!

Yes, the storm hit August 5th. Many pretty auroras. Did you notice any effects with motor vehicles? I presume you did not.

jigsy.com?

You need to have your parents supervise your websurfing.

If you want science, go to NASA or science.gov and stay off of the crap pseudo sites.

The fake picture of the Sun and Earth and flare should have been enough to tip you off that the site was bogus. I can just imagine the persons who frequent that website who now have maps and guns. LOL. Wow.

There was a much larger CME event back in February (all of the way up into the X-class, as opposed to these M-class events). Did your car still work? Did you even notice? No? Well. That ought to tell you something, shouldn't it?

Also, the advice given in that blog is... laughably bad.

I suspect that site was started by a sporting goods company! It is clearly an attempt to sell survival equipment and "big rifles" (I quote). Do not be mislead by blatant scare mongering.

yes. motor vehicles are already effected daily by the suns radiation which usually comes in the form of solar winds. they won't shut down or be spontaneously combusted, in fact the effect will be minute but it will be there.
