'Space tsunamis' may reveal where solar storms will strike next

Original: ‘Space tsunamis’ reveal where solar storms will strike next — and the countries most threatened with power grid failure

Researchers describe 'space tsunamis' — massive waves of solar particles — as a way to predict where solar storms will hit Earth and which countries face the greatest risk of power grid failure. The findings point to nations with vulnerable electrical infrastructure as most threatened by severe space weather events capable of knocking out electricity networks.

Why now: Growing concern about solar storms disrupting power grids has made predictive research on space weather newly newsworthy.
