Solar storm raining on Earth

A solar storm will be raining radiation until Wednesday.

According to the BBC the sun started spewing magnetic energy Sunday threatening to disrupt satellites and aviation navigation over the Polar Regions on Earth.

Solar storms can also enhance the visibility of the Northern Lights. Sightings in the U.K. were reported by Al Jazeera over the weekend.

Earth hasn’t experienced such a storm since 2005. Quebec was left in total darkness in 1989 after a solar storm took out an electrical grid.
