From your link:

The storm struck about 6 a.m. EST in a direction that causes the least amount of problems, said Joe Kunches, a scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Space Weather Prediction Center.

“It’s not a terribly strong event. It’s a very interesting event,” he said.

Initially, scientists figured the storm would be the worst since 2006, but now it seems only as bad as ones a few months ago, he said.
