Details have emerged regarding the magnetic storms expected on August 11–12
On August 11 and 12, solar activity may fluctuate, and with it, the geomagnetic conditions on Earth. Magnetic storms are associated with fluctuations in the geomagnetic field and can cause headaches, fatigue, or stress.
Geomagnetic activity is measured on a scale from 0 to 9. The planetary K-index is used to indicate this; a reading of 5 or higher indicates a strong magnetic storm.
On Tuesday, August 11, solar activity with a K-index of 3.7 (green level) is expected, which corresponds to weak magnetic storms.
On Wednesday, August 12, solar activity with a K-index of 4.7 (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.

As a reminder, traces of a missing planet the size of the Moon may have been found in the Solar System.
Six planets will line up in a row in late February 2026.
