Sunspot 1875 lit off a small solar flare directly at the Earth. The magnetic explosion it released caused another nearby sunspot 1877 to also explode with a M9.3 magnitude solar flare. Both of these flares are Earth directed, and a geomagnetic storm is expected to impact the earth in the next 24-48 hours.  The size of the incoming geomagnetic storm is undetermined so far, but there is a good chance it will be a Major-severe Geomagnetic Storm. The speed of the storm is also undetermined, but based off of previous Earth directed storms could reach us withing 48 hours.
