When are magnetic storms expected on Earth? Scientists’ forecast for March

Scientists predict that there may be 5 magnetic storms in March. This is due to the fact that when the Sun emits streams of charged particles, the Earth’s magnetic field changes. The first magnetic storm is expected on March 6, according to data from the Space Weather Prediction Center of the US National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Agency. The Center notes that solar activity will remain at a high level on March 1, 5, 7, 15 and 25.

At the same time, scientists warn that long-term forecasts are not reliable and may change. As a reminder, magnetic storms due to certain changes in the Earth’s geomagnetic field can cause interruptions in communication, as well as affect the well-being of elderly and weather-dependent people. In particular, headache, dizziness, nausea, joint pain, fatigue and insomnia may appear. Read also: Does weather dependence really exist, and do weather changes affect our well-being?
