Bom predicting the aroaras will be visible as far as 50 deg south, so watch out for it. Make sure to disconnect your 2 way radio base station aerials and electric fence energizers as they could be damaged by the CME. Our important gear is already CME/EMP hardened, both through basic design (thermionic valves), and using fast GAS arresters and spark gaps etc.

That'll be between 90S and 50S not between 0S and 50S. So unless you're on a boat or plane to Antarctica you're going to struggle to see it from Oz.
