Earth passed the peak of the magnetic storm: the threat to communications is over

The cause of the magnetic storm was the Earth entering a stream of fast, dense, and high-temperature solar wind

The peak of disturbances in the Earth's magnetic field has passed. This was reported by Mikhail Leus, a specialist at the Phobos weather center.

According to him, the geomagnetic field will finally return to a calm state on Saturday night. However, the peak of disturbances is most likely behind us. Most of the time, the geomagnetic field will be in a slightly disturbed state.

The cause of the magnetic storm was once again the Earth entering a stream of fast, dense, and high-temperature solar wind emanating from a large coronal hole on the Sun.

Leus added that the probability of magnetic storms forming on March 27 is estimated at 50%, and on Friday at 36%.

Earlier it was reported that on Wednesday, a disturbance of the Earth's magnetic field was recorded, which reached a moderate level of G2, at which problems in energy systems may occur. Disruptions in radio navigation and high-frequency radio communications are also likely.

Earlier, www1.ru reported that nine powerful flares were recorded on the Sun, the most powerful of which lasted more than an hour.
