The solar storm can eject high radiation and charged particles into space which could lead to heavy magnetic fields that will become hazardous for functioning of satellites and space stations. Some experts are predicting that the damages as a result of this solar storm will be as huge as twenty times then the damages occurred due to Hurricane Katrina in year 2005. It could leave millions of people around the globe without electricity, water, and phone service. Experts are saying that it could cost $2 trillion to fix the resulting mess due to solar storm.

"funnyncrazy.com", really? They don't even mention a source in the article. "news-relay.com" doesn't either and is filled with crap filler text, like calling NASA the National Aeronautics and Space Administration about five times. And no, NASA did not declare an "Earth Blackout" in 2013. SIGH.
The original report about increased solar activity came from here: http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/sc ... 4jun_swef/ The "2013" (which isn't concrete) comes from a post calling for a meeting to discuss the matters. http://www.nswp.gov/swef/swef_2010.html I can't find any references to May or why these articles even mentioned May. Sensationalized bad info travels fast.
