The solar activity index is currently at the orange level, the third of five possible levels. He writes about this “Eco-real” With reference to data from the Solar Astronomy Laboratory at the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IKI RAS).
It was noted that on August 28, residents of some regions of Russia felt mental retardation and increased headaches due to magnetic storms whose strength reached four points.
According to astrophysicists, at least a dozen powerful explosions were recorded on the Sun the day before, one of which reached class M. In this regard, scientists predict that in the near future we should expect new explosions, including the most powerful of class X. It is noted that such explosions can continue until August 29, and there is a high probability that the plasma ejected from the Sun will reach the Earth.
Doctors warn that during periods when magnetic activity is above three points, people who are sensitive to weather conditions may experience headaches, dizziness, rapid heartbeat and increased weakness, even fainting. At such times, they should avoid additional stress, intense physical activity and conflict situations. It is also important to control the body’s water balance – it is recommended to drink more clean drinking water.
Before that, the leading expert of the Phobos meteorological center, Mikhail Leus reportedHe said that a G2 class magnetic storm has begun on Earth.
In mid-August, the chief researcher of the Institute of Terrestrial Magnetism, Ionosphere and Radio Wave Propagation NV Pushkova RAS, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Boris Filippov statedThe geomagnetic field protects life on Earth from the harmful effects of the Sun, including explosions and magnetic storms.
At the same time, the scientist noted that magnetic storms have a more serious effect on earthlings than flares on the luminary.
Previously Leus guess Increased number of magnetic storms.
