Light is one thing. Particles another. I’ve read, IIRC, of their speeds of 1,000,000 mph or so. That would be about 93 hours.

Coronal mass ejections don't travel at the speed of light, being mass and all.

Travelling at the speed of light it takes 8 minutes for solar events to reach the earth. But charged particles don't travel at the speed of light. Much slower.
