Freak space storm triggered by solar changes could scupper London Olympics | Mail Online: "With £9.3billion being spent on the Olympics, the organisers could be forgiven for thinking they had prepared for every eventuality.

But London could suffer a space storm during the games - causing power cuts, damaging communication satellites and forcing planes to divert.

London Olympics organisers admitted today they were 'monitoring the situation carefully' after the Met Office warned the next solar storm may occur during the games next year."
