[Regnum] A magnetic storm has begun on Earth. This was reported on February 5 by the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute and the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
The storm is currently weak, at G1 level. It may increase to G2–G3 within 24 hours.
"These storms do not have a clearly defined single cause and are a general response of the Earth's magnetosphere to the extremely high solar activity observed since the beginning of the month," the scientists reported.
Currently, strong auroras of intensity level 10 are observed in the night zone of the Western Hemisphere of the Earth.
A bright glow is observed over all of Canada and the northern US states. For Russia, the situation will clear in approximately 10 hours, when the day/night line moves into the European part of the country.
On February 2, the largest solar flare in the past year and a half occurred, an X8.1 -class solar flare. Scientists recorded the ejection of a plasma cloud into space.

[Regnum] Ten powerful solar flares of the penultimate M class were recorded on the Sun on February 5. This was reported on the website of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
In just one day, scientists recorded 24 flares, including 14 events of the weaker class C. Some of the powerful flares occurred in active region 4362, while previously all events were recorded in sunspot group 4366.
The Sun has been exhibiting unusually high solar flare activity recently. On February 2, the largest solar flare in the past year and a half occurred, an X8.1- class flare. Scientists recorded the ejection of a plasma cloud into space. On February 1, 17 powerful flares occurred.
On January 19, scientists released video footage of the first solar flare of the highest magnitude X in 2026. The event was the largest since November 14, 2025.
