It missed us by 9 days

Interesting that you have a link to win a Tesla.  I don't think a Tesla is going to be able to handle a sever solar storm, and if it does then it probably won't be able to recharge for a long time.  And the only functioning air conditioners available will be in gas or diesel fuelled vehicles.

And rather than "boosting our infrastructure" we should be lowering our reliance on electricity.  We don't need automatic faucets in public washrooms or automatic doors everywhere and we especially don't need all the bright lights at night.
