SEVERE GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH: Giant sunspot AR3664 has now hurled at least 
four CMEs directly toward Earth. Their combined arrival this weekend could 
spark severe (G4-class) geomagnetic storms with mid- to low-latitude auroras. 
Although this is a potentially significant space weather event, it is not 
going to be the next Carrington Event. If the coming storm were a hurricane, 
it would be ranked category 4, not category 5.
