Default Solar storm heading our way.

Two big CMEs are heading straight for us. We may see some spectacular aurorae tonight and/or tomorrow.
There is a very small chance it may damage TVs, computer connections, portable phone systems etc, but the associated solar flare went through yesterday without too much trouble.

Tonight's the night if it is going to be seen!

It could be interesting even if as predicted it only strikes a glancing
blow. The flare was seriously radio loud and was widely recorded. eg

I didn't pick it up on Radio 2? 70's music and flares are in vogue on
that channel,
