"Previously, a G5, or extreme geomagnetic storm, occurred on October 23, resulting in power outages in Sweden and damaged power transformers in South Africa, according to the center."
Flares emitted from the sun on May 12 UTC or after do not count for this question. However, any flare that was emitted on May 11 counts, even if it arrives at Earth several days later.
