We had a tree in our back yard that caught fire with no apparent reason. Is it possible for one of those flares to have hit the tree and caused it to smolter for quite awhile, then catch on fire?

Poor title.
The author needs to go back to school and learn some science. The word 'cosmic' means from beyond the solar system. The correct term would be 'Solar Katrina'.
from the free dictionary:
(Astronomy) occurring or originating in outer space, esp as opposed to the vicinity of the earth, the solar system, or the local galaxy cosmic rays

Methinks the Mayans somehow figured out the pace of the harmonic magnetic field that results from the precession of the earths rotation and its interaction with the fluid liquid metal center. That is what trips over on the Mayan calendar come Christmas time this year.
Florida becomes the north pole. Either that or Australia does. The result: everything keeps on keeping on except the sun will now rise in the west for some.
