A RARE “severe” warning has been issued for a massive solar storm due to arrive at Earth tomorrow.
The storm risks causing major disruption to internet, phone signals and power grids.
The warning has been put in effect by the Space Weather Prediction Centre.
It comes after a coronal mass ejection (CME) erupted from the Sun yesterday evening.
The authority says it will likely lead to “immediate geomagnetic disturbances”.
A statement says: “Confidence in an Earth-arrival component to this CME is good.
“However, timing and intensity are more uncertain. These watches represent potential based on our best analyses.
“We will not know the true nature of this CME’s geomagnetic storm potential until the CME arrives at our solar wind observatories located 1 million miles from Earth.”
The Space Weather Prediction Centre adds that impacts to technological infrastructure are “possible” but could be mitigated.
Its impact might also mean the aurora could be visible in the northern half of the United States.
This could be visible as far south as Alabama and Northern California.
