Sounds interesting. Especially a chance to see the Northern Lights this far South.
I wonder if this is going to have an effect on the Satellite network upstairs, or on anyone's power grid.

Quote:Astroboffins are warning that a mighty "eruption" of superhot plasma has been blasted out of the Sun directly at the Earth. The plasma cloud is expected to reach Earth beginning tomorrow, possibly causing strange phenomena - including a mighty geomagnetic storm which could see the Northern Lights aurorae extend as far south as Blighty or the northern USA.
