Whether you have a brand, new phone, or like mine, yours is full, and there is no more room, make room for this app. Make sure the settings let you know of any X class solar flare. Give it its own alarm at top volume. Then figure out exactly what you would want to do if you knew that in one hour, the sun was going to knock out the global power grid and send you back to the Stone Age.
I strongly recommend part of your one hour protocol, which would probably include collecting children from school, also include creating as much of an separation from the electric grid. The amperage that will come through your main panel will let your house on fire.
This is a low frequency event, so it will not affect small circuitry the way that a nuclear triggered EMP would. However, it is unknown what natural EMP like energy will result as a function of such as solar Killshot.
Everybody will have their own one hour drill. However, everybody’s time is up once you see the northern lights. And they will be spectacular.
Hopefully the X 20 solar flare will not compromise your reception of this notification. That is more the function of what side of the planet is facing the sun.
However, the next Carrington event will be a global event. Line of sight won’t matter.
(Please note that you can prove it’s a globe by calling somebody on FaceTime in the southern hemisphere during a full moon. Theirs will be upside down.)
