It, er, hasn't stopped reporting that? Ref : https://science.nasa.gov/science-research/earth-science/earths-magnetosphere-protecting-our-planet-from-harmful-space-energy/ https://science.nasa.gov/science-research/earth-science/eart...
Not to mention airports have to update their markings regularly. As for the Carrington event stuff, thankfully we've been upgrading the US grid for a decade+ to better handle these anomalous currents. I'm not losing sleep over it and am enjoying the aurora's display all the way in Mississippi. Anyway, there is government-provided information out there if you want to dispel your ignorance further.
