I am going all the way. I’m building a pyre from all my kit in the garden. When the flares come I shall ignite it and let all my kit burn asunder. In this way it shall be reborn the following day as a much improved system with astounding clarity, immediacy and presence. Let the ceremony commence!

According to Wikipedia, the frequency of solar flares varies from several per day to less than one a week, depending on the solar cycle, so they are hardly rare.

Directly above my house in SE London last night - we never normally get to see anything interesting in the night sky!
