Some more possible outages

"The sun fired off an intense solar storm at Earth Wednesday (Aug. 21) — the second in two days — hurtling billions of tons of charged particles at our planet, but should not pose a threat to people on the ground, NASA says."

It may not pose a health threat to us here on the ground, but our space infrastructure, satellite communications,  our energy grid are susceptible to this MCE.

So if your phone starts acting weird, or your power flickers you now know what may be causing it.
