[Regnum] On Wednesday, October 29, weak magnetic storms are expected on Earth, caused by the impact of a coronal hole on the Sun. This was reported by the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute (IKI) of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
"Space weather, October 29, 2025. 24-hour forecast: geomagnetic conditions – disturbances and low-level magnetic storms are predicted due to the impact of plasma from the solar coronal hole on Earth," the laboratory's Telegram channel states.
According to scientists, calm flare activity is also expected. Meanwhile, a weakly disturbed geomagnetic environment was observed on Earth over the past 24 hours.
Earlier, on October 26, specialists from the Solar Astronomy Laboratory at the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences predicted an increase in solar activity over the next few days. At that time, geomagnetic activity and solar flares were quiet.
Prior to this, on October 19, a solar flare of the penultimate M-class occurred. Its duration was 18 minutes; such events can be accompanied by solar plasma emissions
