A powerful solar storm is set to hit Earth on Thursday (March 31) with spectacular aurora displays accompanying it after the sun fired nearly 20 flares from a single sunspot in just two days.
The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) warned that two coronal mass ejections (CMEs), spat out from the overactive sunspot AR2975, on Monday (March 28), are heading toward our planet and might trigger a geomagnetic storm rated as G3 on NOAA's five-point scale.

Please not, the dates are based on UT/Greenwich/Zulu time.

‘Cannibal’ coronal mass ejection will hit Earth at nearly 2 million mph, scientists say

The Northern Lights could be visible as far south as Pennsylvania and Oregon.

Ah. Thank you!
You’re welcome. I’ve been screwed on previous occasions because of articles or newscasters not making the time clear.
You...and anyone reading this...who has Windows 10 can go down and add a clock with Universal Time;
Currently its 11:51 UTC by my clock.

GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH (G3-CLASS): Strong G3-class geomagnetic storms are possible during the early UT hours of March 31st when a Cannibal CME is expected to hit Earth's magnetic field. During such storms, naked-eye auroras can descend into the USA as far south as, e.g., Illinois and Oregon (geomagnetic latitude 50o). North Americans should be alert for auroras after local nightfall on March 30th. The hours before dawn on March 31st are probably best for Europeans. Aurora alerts: SMS Text.
X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE AND CME (UPDATED): Earth-orbiting satellites have just detected an X1.3-class solar flare (March 30 @ 1737 UT). The source is active sunspot AR2975--the same sunspot that has already hurled at least two CMEs toward Earth this week. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the flare's extreme ultraviolet flash:
Snip
This CME will probably reach Earth during the early hours of April 2nd. (NOAA and NASA modeling, now underway, will soon refine the arrival time.) Its impact could trigger moderately-strong G2-class geomagnetic storms, extending a period of geomagnetic unrest expected to begin tonight with the arrival of a Cannibal CME launched by the same sunspot a few days ago. High-latitude sky watchers should prepare for auroras.

Not at all would be my guess.
Soooo...that means the consecration of Russia was invalid...!
And the failed consecration of the second secret?
When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign given you by God that he is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine, and persecutions of the Church and of the Holy Father.
I am not bracing. Nobody is bracing.
Cause: Trump Russian collusion.
Obviously Trump’s fault.
Great..dead tree flowers, pollen and now coronal ejaculations...I’ll never get this mess cleaned up.
I swear, solar activity causes cloud cover where ever I happen to be.
