[Regnum] Geomagnetic disturbances caused by the so-called coronal hole — an area on the Sun where the solar wind flow is weakened — have begun on Earth. This was reported on August 8 by the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute (IKI) of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
According to forecasts, in the next 5-7 days the magnetosphere will be “shaking” at the yellow level, with periodic bursts to the red, which corresponds to weak and medium magnetic storms.
According to preliminary data, geomagnetic activity will begin to subside no earlier than Wednesday.
“The main remaining intrigue for the coming hours is whether the first of the plasma clouds will fly to Earth or pass by,” the IKI RAS Telegram channel reports.
