This might have something to do with it ...

Space Weather News for Dec. 13, 2006
http://spaceweather.com
X-FLARE: Sunspot 930 erupted again this morning, producing a strong 
X3-class solar flare. The blast triggered an ongoing radiation storm and 
probably hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) toward Earth. Auroras are 
possible when the CME arrives on Dec. 14th or 15th.
Note: The radiation storm mentioned above is of moderate intensity and, 
unless it strengthens greatly, poses no threat to astronauts orbiting Earth 
onboard the International Space Station or the space shuttle. The 
astronauts are protected by the walls of their spacecraft as well as by 
Earth's magnetic field.
