Earth to be hit by a second solar storm TODAY with a 75% chance of radio, satellite and GPS outages, NOAA warns

by
The US government's space weather experts are warning that a powerful three-day solar storm will hit Earth today - following a solar flare that caused coronal mass ejections (CME) towards Earth - potentially causing 'electricity grid fluctuations'.

Earth is expected to be hit by a powerful three-day solar storm today that could cause “fluctuations in the power grid,” experts warn. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) noted that the geomagnetic storm, which is a major disruption of Earth’s magnetosphere, could disrupt the orbits of satellites, cause radio blackouts and create incredible … Read more
