A major geomagnetic solar storm that could knock out the power grid and internet is heading for a “direct hit” with Earth within hours.
Prediction models from both NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) show the storm hitting on Thursday, April 14.
Solar storms happen after explosions in the Sun’s atmosphere that then send out huge bursts of energy through solar flares, also known as a coronal mass ejection.
