M Class Solar Flare

Yesterday there was an M-class solar flare.  It messed with some radio signals in Europe, but we didn't get anything on this side of the planet.

I was disappointed that I didn't get any warning.  Now, it's true, that I'm not worried about M-class flares, I am waiting for the life changing X-class (hey, wait a minute... is Wolverine involved?) flares.  But really, there should be some kind of alarm system.  You know, like those tidal wave horns?  Do they have those here?  Okay, like the tidal wave horns of my childhood in Hawaii.  If there's a big one coming I need my twenty minute warning to start dispatching my team.

Is there an app for solar flare warnings?
