On the night of June 13, a magnetic storm that was not predetermined on Earth began on Earth, which continues now. It is evaluated as average in strength, but with the possibility of reaching strong levels. Alerts about this were released in the laboratory of solar astronomy of Iki and HSFZ.
It is reported that according to Friday morning, the event score reached the G2.3 – this is higher than the average level and exceeds the threshold, starting from which the influence on energy systems and the distribution of radio waves becomes noticeable.
“The reasons for the storm are currently not obvious. Measuring instruments showed in the last hours a noticeable increase in plasma density, as well as induction of the magnetic field in the solar wind surrounding the Earth. At the same time, the plasma speed (the main indicator of the arrival of mass emissions or the flow of a substance from the coronal hole) is not increased. The event was also absent in the geomagnetic forecast, ”scientists said.
At the same time, on the next day (on the night of June 13 to 14), the beginning of the influence of the Earth of a large coronal hole was predicted, Well visible now in the southern hemisphere of the sun.
“This suggests that the Earth currently interacts with a dense substance on the edge of the coronal hole. Inside the coronal holes of the plasma, as correctly, is very rarefied, which is sometimes compensated by the density jump at their boundaries. If so, then the speed of the solar wind, which is still unchanged, may begin to grow earlier than the graphics, already today, June 13, during the day. It is difficult to predict the duration and possible power of the current storm: the events, as already noted, was not in the forecast, and, in addition, we are talking about transitional border processes that are poorly evaluated. So far, you can only state that the planet is prematurely included in the 2-3-day segment of a complex geomagnetic environment with strong fluctuations in geomagnetic indices. In the past passage of this hole in front of the Earth, in May 2025, the peak values of the then magnetic storms registered then were in the G2-G3 range, ”experts explained.
Recall that geomagnetic disturbances can Proper minor malfunctions in the work of energy systems, as well as negatively affect the well -being of weather dependent people and suffering from chronic diseases. Also during magnetic storms There is an increase in injuries and accidents in transport and production. Drivers are possible a strong slowdown in the reaction, the risk of accidents increases.
During outbreaks in the sun, doctors recommend, if possible, to exclude physical activity, abandon bad habits and walk in the fresh air more.
