This is my first day of actual research on the sun, and let me tell you, it is quite intense. After spending two hours in the Honors Center, I believe that it is almost impossible of finding out if the sun affects the weather at all. I'm thinking about dropping area of the paper. All I could find a lot on was the sun's relations to magnetism. I sent the information to myself, after copying the sites and some quotes down on a Word Document. There is so much information on the sun that it is very overwhelming. One page led to another, which led to another, and another, and another, and another, and another. I have noticed that the pretty pictures of the sun is what lure you in to reading all these articles on it, and then once sucked in, it's impossible to get out. I started this research with the Blackboard sites provided by the Professor, and then it exploded from there.
As much as I would love to share all the information I have found, there is too much and it may confuse you, dear reader, so I have decided to sum up the information that is pages long, in one or two sentences. In short, the sun affects Earth in the sense that solar flares cause a lot of power outages, due to overstimulated, electrified circuits (I think...). This led to examples of incidents and its effect on Earth, which is a negative one on our economy.
I may have to go over those notes again...
