Power grid operations on Earth are most likely to degrade during **coronal mass ejections (CMEs)**. CMEs can release large amounts of charged particles into space, which, when interacting with Earth's magnetic field, can induce geomagnetic storms that affect power grids.

The prediction that is most likely to happen due to solar energetic particles during a solar radiation storm is: **Radio communications at high latitudes will be blocked.** Solar energetic particles can interfere with radio signals, particularly in polar regions, leading to temporary communication blackouts.

Scientists would predict that **high-frequency radio waves used for radio communication will be blocked** due to solar flares. Solar flares can cause disturbances in the ionosphere, which can lead to the disruption of radio signals, particularly those relying on high-frequency communication.
