Sun unleashes triple solar flares, boosting chances for vivid northern lights
TL;DR Summary
Three major solar flares erupted from sunspot region 4455 in under 24 hours—M9.3, M7.9 and an X1—that triggered radio blackouts on Earth and launched Earth-directed CMEs. With geomagnetic storm activity expected (G1–G3) in the coming days, forecasters say auroras could appear at lower latitudes if the CMEs hit as anticipated (potentially around June 4–6).
