Seems that I may get a chance to employ my emergency plan, which consists of waving my arms while running around in circles screaming; "Why didn't we elect more democrats to fix this?!?"

:P

Not necessarily a big deal:

"But it turns out there are fairly simple measures which are well understood now which can be taken. There are the equivalents of huge surge protectors which need to be put on these different transformers."

Who can predict a solar flare three years in advance? All they can predict is that the solar cycle should be nearing its maximum at that time.

Maybe there is a big solar flare, maybe not. Even if there is, it may not hit the Earth, since it would have to be in the part of the sun directly facing the Earth.
