A strong magnetic storm is approaching the Earth, triggered by the coronal mass ejection from the Sun, which occurred on December 31.
This natural phenomenon, according to the forecasts of the British Geological Survey, will manifest itself on January 2 and 3. During these days, periods of activity that may reach the G1 level are expected, and there is also the possibility of short bursts to G3.
Magnetic storms, especially of the G3 level, can cause serious disruptions in satellite systems, radio communications and power grids. People who are sensitive to these effects may experience discomfort, including headaches and fatigue. Experts recommend limiting physical activity and getting more rest on these days to reduce the negative effects.
Magnetic storms of the G3 level belong to the category of strong geomagnetic disturbances and arise as a result of powerful emissions of solar plasma.
During such periods, the disturbance of the magnetic field increases significantly, which can cause failures in the operation of satellite navigation, radio communication and energy systems.
At high latitudes, bright auroras are often observed, which can be seen even in regions where this phenomenon is considered rare.
For people, G3 magnetic storms can be accompanied by deterioration of well-being: headache, increased fatigue and drops in blood pressure. Experts recommend on such days to reduce workload, rest more and monitor space weather forecasts.
During periods of magnetic storms at high latitudes, beautiful auroras can be observed, which adds visual appeal, but the overall impact on technology and public health requires attention and caution.
