These are the same people that told everyone that planes MIGHT fall from the sky when the calendar clicked over to 2000.
My Garmin can only see 11 sats in my backyard and many at full strength.
It reminds me of an episode of Doomsday Preppers with a prepper scared that solar flares in the (then upcoming) solar maxima of 2012-13 were going to send society back to the 1800s.
GPS kept working right through that too.

Meta4 said:DBS said:With all the "the sky is falling" warnings, has anyone heard of any real effects on anything other than auroras?
DBS said:Today... K-index bumped up to a 3 a couple hours ago but is back down at 2 now... they didn't give a time from what i was reading they just said "should arrive Friday" :ugeek:
