Yes paul, that looks like it, it happened between midnight and 1 o'clock UTC as far as I am aware, it could be the most powerfull this last 12 months or so, not sure if any of it is heading this way yet. I check most days on spaceweather.com to see whats happening up there. The last big one was an X2 and I was SWLing when that hit us, the bands went dead for quite a while as I recall.
