These Solar winds produce radiations from radio waves to x-rays and gamma-rays. Solar winds also known as solar tsunami is likely to reach earth on October 3rd, 2011.
On reaching earth they will cause disturbance with earth's magnetic field. It can cause disruption in satellites, power grids and nuclear power plants.
