Geomagnetic storm expected to hit Europe, US

According to “space news.com”, Space Weather Forecast Centre (SWPC) of the National Ocean Administration and Atmosphere (NOAA) has issued warning of a geomagnetic storm.

The SWPC announced that there is the possibility of observing Aurora Borealis in the middle width of the Earth, in Europe and the US, following the geomagnetic storm projected to occur during the day.

NOAAA noted that the geomagnetic storm, which will begin at the G3 level on a 5-level scale, could continue until 1 August.

 

 

A few weeks ago, the sun released the largest wave of fire in about a decade, just days after heavy solar storms hit the Earth, creating the phenomenon known as “Aurora Borealis” or northern lights, unusual in many parts of the world.

The wave of solar flame is caused by an intense burst of radiation resulting from the release of magnetic energy linked to what is known as a spot on the solar surface.

This is the biggest explosion of this 11-year-old solar cycle. The good news is that this time our planet is outside the magnetic wave trajector because the explosion occurred on a part of the sun's surface in the opposite direction of the earth.

Meanwhile, it has also recently become known that the Earth can be hit by another powerful solar storm this week, designed to cause disruptions of communication and incredible performances of northern light.
