Magnetic Storm Forecast for July 1–2: Low Solar Activity Expected
No significant magnetic storms are forecast for July 1–2, and solar activity will remain mostly low or moderate. At the same time, weather-sensitive individuals may experience mild discomfort due to fluctuations in the geomagnetic background.
Geomagnetic activity is measured on a scale from 0 to 9. The planetary K-index is used for classification; a reading of 5 or higher indicates a strong magnetic storm.
On Wednesday, July 1, solar activity with a K-index of 5 (red level) is expected, corresponding to strong magnetic storms capable of affecting human health and well-being.
On Thursday, July 2, solar activity with a K-index of 4 (yellow level) is expected, which corresponds to moderate magnetic storms.
It is important to note that magnetic storm forecasts are subject to change, as solar activity researchers update their data every three hours
