According to the British Geological Survey, the strength of the geomagnetic disturbance reaches the G2 level, which is classified as a severe storm.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> The disturbance was caused by an increase in the speed of the solar wind, triggered by a coronal hole on the Sun. The storm&#8217;s intensity is expected to gradually decrease, but fluctuations at the G1 level (weak storm) are possible in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p> According to The Watchers, increased geomagnetic activity has been observed since September 29. One of the factors that preserved it was the Earth&#8217;s location near the autumnal equinox &#8211; during this period, our planet is more vulnerable to the effects of solar activity.<\/p>\n<p> According to current forecasts, the unstable magnetic situation with oscillations at the G1-G2 levels will last at least until October 4. This is due to the fact that the Earth is still in the zone of influence of the same coronal hole that caused the increased activity. <\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/api.meteoagent.com\/widgets\/v1\/kindex\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 500px;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p> <strong>How to protect yourself during magnetic storms?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> Geomagnetic storms can negatively affect well-being, especially in people with cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, or weather dependence.
