Besides affecting the electrical grid, this very well could now be affecting your long links at microwave frequency. The coronal discharge was very large and may cause the northern lights to be visible tonight and tomorrow night. I would be curious if anyone sees any effect on their links during this event. Some satellite communications have already been affected.
