"Scientist say they expect it to be the worst solar flareup to be felt on Earth since a storm in 1859. That storm caused telegraph wires to short out across North America and Europe."


This statement has since been debunked - the news media mistakenly interpreted a reference to the 1859 storm. The current storm, or lack of it, was never anticipated by scientists to be severe.
