[Regnum] Strong magnetic storms are predicted on Earth on November 28 and 29. This was reported on the website of the IKI and ISTP solar astronomy laboratory.
It is noted that a weak magnetic storm of level G1 is expected late in the evening of November 28. After 06:00 Moscow time on November 29, a stronger six-point wave of level G2 will hit the Earth, which will continue until 12:00 Moscow time.
At the same time, according to the forecast for December, after the storm on November 29, the Earth’s magnetosphere will be in a calm state almost until the end of the year.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, in early October, a level X flare occurred on the Sun, which caused a plasma ejection in the direction of the Earth and a magnetic storm. According to scientists, this occurred exactly along the Sun-Earth line, while the geometric dimensions of the ejection exceeded possible calculation errors.
Later, on October 28, a plasma cloud with a speed of about 600 km/s and a temperature of about 700 thousand degrees reached the Earth. Two active spots 3842 and 3848 are on the side of the Sun visible from the Earth, which caused powerful magnetic storms at the beginning of the month.
