A #solarstorm comes! NOAA & NASA predict the storm launched during the X1.6-flare will hit Earth late May 5. NASA indicates the shockwave will cause the main disruption, with the bulk of the storm missing us. Expect #aurora shows to reach mid-latitudes but quiet down quickly. pic.twitter.com/N3v0hnJwAn
