A powerful 'Cannibal CME' solar storm is striking Earth today (November 12, 2025) after multiple coronal mass ejections from sunspot 4274 merged into a supercharged plasma structure. The event follows an X5.1-class solar flare, the strongest of 2025, which caused radio blackouts over southern Africa. Space weather experts predict strong G3 to severe G4-level geomagnetic storms, with auroral displays potentially visible across 21 US states and Canada.
