So 3 weaker ones adding power together to become a very strong one.

But still they say humans won 't feel the effects.

well sort of, they hit yesterday...


Earth's magnetic field is still reverberating from a CME strike on August 5th that sparked one of the strongest geomagnetic storms in years. Registering 8 on the 0 to 9 "K-index" scale of magnetic disturbances, the storm at maximum sparked auroras across Europe and in many northern-tier US states.
