it causes auroras at the poles where the earth's magentosphere doesn't block the solar wind particles. and a huge mass of solar wind, say ejected by a solar flare, can cause power failures and disruption of electronic equipment, such as cell phones and radios.

The solar winds affect the magnetosphereof the earth which is a layer of charged particle that surrounds the Earth. When the Solar Winds try 2 enter the Earth's atmosphere, then the magnetosphere of the Earth stops it. On reacting with the layers of magnetosphere, the chemical in the Earth's atmosphere get charged and present a light show at the poles known as 'Auroras'. The one that is seen at the North pole is Aurora Borealis and the one 2 b seen at South pole is called Aurora Australis. These Solar Winds can b effective enough to conduct a power cut all round Earth. The most affective of the solar winds cause the Auroras that can b visible till the Equator. Several lights in the auroras depict the various elements involved.

The ozone layer is formed when the solar winds collide with the earth's magnetic field. It is also known as the Van Allen belt.
