A few questions about magnetic reversal

Say the Earth is on it's way for a magnetic reversal... Once it does, how weak will the magnetic field be? How long will it take for the reversal to be complete? During the middle of the reversal, would the magnetic poles spaz out? How would it affect life on Earth? Would it change the climate? How? Couldn't we be more prone to magnetic storms?

 

I'm sorry for spelling errors, I suck at spelling. :x

I found this program incredibly informative. It was on PBS, a show called NOVA. The title was "Magnetic Storm." Check it out, as many of your questions were directly addressed. :)
