Isaiah asked the chief how the glass in the buildings blew outward. The chief evaded the question. If you don't know the answer, just say i don't know. There is nothing to be ashamed about. He's not a physicists.

That string of (moderate) solar flares that hit Earth last week have a direct connection to this storm. Earth's protective magnestosphere is down 30% in strength with weakening excelerating as the pole shift speeds up. Our signiciantly weaker shield allows far more highly charged particles to penetrate down to ever lower levels (and latitudes) of our atmosphere. Hence, the widespread 'pink' (as opposed to green) auroras after Earth got hit with that string of only moderate CMEs. The atmosphere and crust will remain more highly charged for at least 30 days post impact. This significantly increases the possibility of earthquakes, volcanic activity, and extreme storms fueled with much more energy as that built up energy gets discharged. These severe super storms will become more common and over time much more extreme as the pole shift excelerates. Hold onto your hats and be prepared.

This happened before to downtown Houston. I don't know what he's talking about.
