Magnetic storm will hit Earth again: scientists have named the date

The unstable geomagnetic situation on Earth will remain in the coming days. Today, September 10, a weak G1-level magnetic storm is still possible, after which a short lull is expected, but on September 12, geomagnetic activity may increase again.

This is evidenced by the forecast of the British Geological Survey (BGS).

The current disturbance was caused by three coronal mass ejections that occurred on the Sun on September 5 and 6. Their impact is gradually weakening, but the speed of the solar wind still remains slightly elevated.

On September 11, the geomagnetic situation should be mostly calm, and the probability of a magnetic storm will decrease.

At the same time, a new wave of activity is predicted for September 12. According to BGS, the Earth will begin to be affected by a coronal hole on the Sun, which may cause a weak G1-level magnetic storm.

During a storm of this magnitude, minor disruptions to power systems and satellites are possible. At high latitudes, the likelihood of auroras also increases. In addition, geomagnetic disturbances can cause induced currents in terrestrial infrastructure.
