*NASA flew a mission to the Sun.
*Magnetic holes only occur at the poles.
*Since the holes aren't directed along the ecliptic,they have no affect on Earth.
*Plasma is not matter,in the conventional sense,it's free electrons, protons, and neutrons.
*Plasma it too hot to allow atoms to exist.
*Earth's geomagnetic field intercepts charged particles.
*Any interference is limited to telecommunications and GPS navigation,momentarily.
*For space weather to affect seismic events,the magnetic coupling between Sun and Earth would have to be intense enough to deform iron-rich magmas in Earth's convective mantle.
*We know from transatlantic cable research that no such magnetic coupling exists.
*As far as the scientific literature goes,this space weather has absolutely nothing to do with earthquakes.They're purely a function of sea-floor spreading, tectonic stress relief along faults,and can be accompanied with explosive volcanic eruptions,or visa-versa (Asteroid impacts would do it too).
