"Freund says common forms of earthquake lights include bluish flames that appear to come out of the ground at ankle height; orbs of light called ball lightning that float in the air for tens of seconds or even minutes; and quick flashes of bright light that resemble regular lightning strikes, except they come out of the ground instead of the sky and can stretch up to 650 feet (200 meters)."
I thought lightning always come of the ground. Or am I retarded?

Severe Geomagnetic Storm
A coronal mass ejection (CME) propelled into space by an X9.3 solar flare on Thursday reached our planet a little earlier than expected and helped to generate a Severe (G4) level geomagnetic storm. The solar wind climbed to above 700 km/s and the Bz component of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) pointed sharply south (-32nT) following the shock passage. Visual aurora is being reported across many locations at middle to high latitudes. Attached photo below is courtesy of Kathy Laroche from Williamstown, Ontario, Canada. Excellent photo and thanks for sharing!
A geomagnetic storm warning will remain in place for the next 24 hours. Sky watchers should continue to be alert for visual aurora.
Make this link into its own post. That is amazing! It looks like the aurora borealis crossed with a lightning storm. This is way more interesting than the other guys prediction crap.
It's because he's been making these predictions nearly every other day all fucking year (at the least, I haven't been here much longer than that) and they've all been wrong, on top of all making use of incredibly vague statements like "sometime in the next week" or "somewhere on earth."
I have no problem with the idea that powerful solar flares can interact with the earth's magnetic field and affect or cause earthquakes. My problem is with ParsingSol's flimflammery and the way people ignore dozens, if not hundreds, of false claims and instead focus on the one or two times something actually happened. It's like the /r/conspiracy attitude towards him is one of "fool me once, or twice, or three or four times, shame on you, but all is forgiven if you're right at least once."
Surprise, if you predict something happening anywhere on earth once every couple of data for years then eventually something is going to happen. That doesn't mean your model for prediction is correct (and obviously indicates its inaccuracy) even if the underlying scientific theory works out.
He has been doing it longer than a year. He even changed his username after so many wrong predictions. Doesn't mean he is wrong though. Could be on to something but predicting magnitude without location doesn't really help.
I wouldn't call myself salty, but I'm still skeptical based on how many times he's predicted one and been wrong. There was a post showing he predicted something each week for a month and was wrong each time.
Shouldn't stop him still doing his thing though because if he ends up correct it would be a major event in human history as we currently don't have anything that can predict earthquakes in a short period of time, and frankly it seems worth him continuing what he's doing if it leads to that. Not like he's hurting anyone so more power to him. I'll continue reading his posts with an open mind.
Buildings are usually moving, and in most cases modern buildings are designed to distribute the energy from earthquakes, and cameras have stabilizers. Powerlines don't.
Evidence that there's more to earthquakes than just plate tectonics?
We know about telluric currents and the Earth's magnetic field. Also plenty of electrical effects associated with weather. So it shouldn't be that big of a jump to suggest there's some form of electrical activity associated with seismic activity.
This, in turn, suggests an explanation for how dogs, birds and other animals seem to be able to sense some earthquakes before they happen.
And who says r/conspiracy can't be a learning experience?

I think it's entirely within the realm of possibility that some of these quakes are artificially stimulated (putting pressure on already unstable fault lines).
The earthquakes/tsunamis from 2004 and 2011 in particular may be candidates for this theory.
This is possible if there's a causal link between observed electrical effects and quake activity. If you know how the two are related, you could create one effect (quake) indirectly by manipulation of the other (electrical activity).
I haven't got a clue about the details of how this would work. But the principle is at least plausible.
Dutchsinse has been forecasting EQ's for several years and runs livestreams every day with forecasts every night. He is accurate and his methods are easy to follow. He also called this EQ and had Mexico on the watch list. Wonder why he doesn't get much play on this forum?
The guy who posted yesterday or whenever stated something about how he knew the earth quake was coming based on solar activity. Ill bet it was a solar flare or something alike causing the lights and a correlation to the quake.

Other than all of them being in the sky, and not coming from the ground, cool. This wasn't earthquake lights.

Remember the sky is not really blue, it's just a reflection of the light that causes it to look blue.
1 MindWarfare 2017-09-08
Bizzare, the twitter pic looks more like an aurora borealis effect than the UFO looking earthquake lights.
People saw the auroras as far down as the southern hemisphere after the Carrington Event.

What prediction crap? If you're talking about ParsingSol's predictions, they're actually based on solar flares magnetizing tectonic plate breaches.
His predictions are given even more credence thanks to this event.

Yes, and there's more to hurricanes (and other natural disasters) too.
Numerous "Hutchison Effect"-related phenomena have been observed in hurricanes, indicating that it's tapping into exotic physics realms.
Fascinating stuff!
1 OB1_kenobi 2017-09-08
You might want to check out electric universe theory as well.
I posted this link over at r/FringeTheory a couple of months ago.
Video shows clouds above a hurricane lighting up due to possible electrical effects.
