It should be noted that such data is approximate, as it is very difficult to predict solar flares. Forecasts are based on a number of variables that often fluctuate. Therefore, the number of magnetic storms may vary throughout the month, and scientists will be caught unawares by unexpected events.

When strong magnetic storms occur, the planet can experience auroras, short-term interruptions in the operation of electronics, satellites, radio, and even power outages. Weather-dependent people, people with chronic illnesses, and the elderly complain of feeling unwell. However, scientists do not confirm this connection.

How to feel better during magnetic storms
