No one is predicting a "Sun storm" for 2012. We expect increased activity building to a maximum in May 2013, but nothing that could be called a "Sun storm." In fact, the 2013 maximum is expected to be less than average. Certainly, the Earth won't "burn"; it hasn't in any of the previous maximums of solar activity over the last few billions of years! The Earth is always essentially the same distance from the Sun.
The average distance between the Sun and the Earth is about 92,935,700 miles. Astronomers refer to this distance as one astronomical unit—the distance light travels in about eight and a half minutes.
Earth's orbit is actually not perfectly circular; the distance between the Earth and the Sun varies slightly over the course of the year. This does not, however, account for seasons; the angle of the Earth's axis relative to the sun is responsible for that.
