The Bureau of Meteorology has warned a severe geomagnetic storm event is expected to impact Earth from about 8pm AEST on Friday.
Power outages may occur and satellite services could be impacted.
The BOM has urged governments and critical infrastructure operators to take action to reduce potential impacts on infrastructure and essential services, such as power grids.
Geomagnetic storms are not considered dangerous to human bodies.
Level G4 (severe) geomagnetic storm conditions are expected to arrive at Earth from about 8pm AEST on Friday before reducing to G3, with a chance of reaching level G4 again on Saturday.
The G-scale is a measure of global geomagnetic activity, which refers to fluctuations in Earth's magnetic field across the globe. The G-scale ranges from G1 (minor) to G5 (extreme).
The BOM predicts these geomagnetic conditions will likely continue until 6am on Monday AEST.

Tucker Carlson has an interview about something like this happening. It is on youtube , and is about 45 minutes long. I am just in the process of watching it now.
I think that what he is talking about is much more severe than what we are being warned about this time with the geomagnetic storm, but something like a Carrington Event IS possible, and we have no way to be sure what the sun is going to do at any specific time. We just have to try and be prepared as best as we can.
