Could be.
The impact from CMEs are REALLY hard to predict. There are so many factors. With that said the sun ejects CMEs on the regular it just so happens that we are not in the path (which is normal) and/or our magnetosphere is doing it's job and protecting us.
But with the proper trajectory, timing and energy a CME could be really bad.
Probably the best place for your electronic devices would be under a metal roof or inside your car surrounded by metal...acting as a tesla cage, I guess.

As I understand it small electronic devices aren't in as much risk. It's the large amount of large power transformers that would be blown out and not easily or quickly be able to be replaced that would really screw some areas.
