A dramatic blast from the sun set off a geomagnetic storm in Earth's atmosphere on Friday that is just the fourth of its kind in the past five years. The flare has triggered a severe geomagnetic storm watch for the first time in nearly 20 years. Planet Earth is getting rocked by the biggest solar storm of the current solar cycle, which began in 2019. This image provided by NASA shows a solar flare as seen in the bright flash in the lower right captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. A severe G4 geomagnetic storm could emerge on Friday. Northern lights forecast for May 10-12, 2024.
