Yea the more I think about it, that would give enough time to safely land planes and do controlled shut downs of substations, Telcom, internet and maybe even let you adjust satellite orbits and/or evac the crew of the ISS if you were Johnny on the spot.

Enough time to shut them down, we only need to shut them down for a few minutes too so this system could literally save society from total chaos

It’s enough time to shut down generators if you know ahead of time you’ll only have a 30 minute window within a couples days time
