For the next few weeks, there is a risk that you will encounter, for example, fluctuations in the power grid, signal problems, degraded radio reception, and so on. Several large sunspots have appeared on the Sun, from which a large number of energetic particles with the potential to cause a geomagnetic storm are released towards the Earth. It should not be too strong, but it is still good to count on its manifestations. It is also possible that more spots will appear on the Sun in the coming hours and days.

According to the Space Weather server, the newly discovered holes on the Sun have a diameter of over 190 kilometers, which is about 000 times more than the diameter of the planet Earth. However, this is nothing compared to the black hole that opened on the Sun this March. It had a diameter of an incredible 15 to 300 kilometers. Just for fun, the diameter of the Earth is 000 kilometers, so our planet could theoretically fit into the hole more than 400 times. As for the closer characteristics of the holes on the Sun in general, these are actually colder places than the rest of the surface of our closest star, which is why they appear black or minidark. The solar wind "blows" out of the holes in the form of energetic particles that have the potential to disrupt the functionality of terrestrial electronics. According to scientists, this could happen in the coming days, when the strongest "currents" should hit the Earth, while in the following days the influx of particles will weaken. But this is assuming that no more holes appear. If this is not the case, strong waves will roll towards the Earth in several phases and problems with electronics may therefore be of a longer-term nature.
Light (or other light) flies from the sun to the earth in a little over 8 minutes. So now I don't know if I missed something. 😁
It's probably because it's not about light.
Do you know if something more serious will happen? I wouldn't want to go to work in the last days of my life..
