• Two powerful X-class solar flares emitted from sunspot region AR4419 caused radio blackouts on Earth.
• The flares, the most intense in 78 days, initially impacted the Pacific Ocean and Australia, then East Asia.
• Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) accompanied the flares, with uncertain direct impact on Earth.
