I got the original info from Nasa.gov and from KGW here http://www.kgw.com/home/Solar-bursts-could-disrupt-your-cell-signal-123582449.html, that's also why it says "could" disrupt not "will." There's a cool video of it here http://www.nowpublic.com/environment/solar-flare-june-7-2011-photos-video-huge-solar-storm-pics-2799809.html
