Im no fan of Fox news but.
If you know your solar physics you know that the sun is on an 11 year cycle for increased solar flare activity, that 11 year cycle corresponds directly to the same 11 year cycle the sun has for its magnetic field swapping polarity. The physics are extremely complicated but the swapping of the magnetic field does increase the emission of solar flares and increased solar activity that can and does cause widespread blackouts when it happens to be on a collision path with earth.
It also causes the Northern Lights to be visible as far south as Washington DC under the right circumstances
