A solar flare is no danger to your PC or Iphone.

Solar flares do not cause power outages.
The CMEs which can be associated with them can cause geomagnetic storms which can cause problems with the power grid but they take days to arrive. They also have to be quite strong.
There is no significant geomagnetic activity today.

Well this is going to arrive just in time for the next set of waves to the US shores. Hurricanes can be affected and driven by these intense winds caused by much smaller Solar events. Stay tuned as winds could become very strong across much of the US in the next several days. Lightning and even toradoes may become probable as well.

A 6.4 earthquake is nothing unusual.
