Radiation storm to hit Earth THIS WEEK, here's what you need to know
Briefly

The sun has been releasing powerful flares, emissions of electromagnetic radiation, which contain large quantities of charged particles.
Charged particles from a solar flare can become caught in spirals, shooting back to Earth causing disruptions to satellite communications and power grids.
The magnetic storm on the sun producing X-class flares is still active, leading to warnings of potential solar radiation storms.
