Sorry for the stupid question, but assuming that something bigger fired today, the effects of it will be felt in two days, right?
 Quoting: Richard S. 577949


flares reach earth at the speed of light, and get here in around 8 minutes
if there is a CME with the flare, it gets here in around 2-4 days usually, depending on the force of ejection, thus the speed it is then traveling to earth

but there was NO major flare durring the Xray flux gap today
it was a C5.6 Flare from sunspot region 1305
starting at 17:57 and ending at 18:28
