"What's going on? Ironically, the radiation drop is caused by increasing solar activity. Solar Cycle 25 has roared to life faster than forecasters expected. The sun's strengthening and increasingly tangled magnetic field repels cosmic rays from deep space. In addition, solar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) sweep aside cosmic rays, causing sharp reductions called "Forbush Decreases." The two effects blend together to bring daily radiation levels down.
.Who cares? Cosmic rays are a surprisingly "down to Earth" form of space weather. They can alter the chemistry of the atmosphere, trigger lightning, and penetrate commercial airplanes. According to a study from the Harvard T.H. Chan school of public health, crews of aircraft have higher rates of cancer than the general population. The researchers listed cosmic rays, irregular sleep habits, and chemical contaminants as leading risk factors. A number of controversial studies (#1, #2, #3, #4) go even further, linking cosmic rays with cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death."
If one goes to the link, spaceweather.com and check those links out, 1,2,3, & 4 and go read these, one might get an inkling how the Solar affects us once again as I've linked to other articles.
While the site says its controversial, it still gives the link to the medical/scientific papers to them.

huh? what page on spaceweather.com did you get this from I don't see it nor does this make sense to me...is the post n your own words...or...? Can you share the specific links spoken of in the text? I am so tired and wiped out today it's all the more confusing what you are striving to relay as how to this you shared connects specifically to earth groan factors. ~Evie

Never mind...I see it now under the NEO chart...if anyone else comes across this later the archive date on spaceweather.com would be todays date August 12, 2023 and yesterday also August 11, 2023.
