Rather strong M-class solar flares are forecasted to occur on the Sun on September 7 and 8. Specialists from the Institute of Applied Geophysics note that although overall solar activity will remain at a relatively low level, the probability of individual powerful flares is very high.
According to forecasts, the Earth's geomagnetic field will be in an unstable state on September 7. By September 8, slight disturbances are expected.
Solar flares of this magnitude are often accompanied by powerful plasma ejections. If these ejections move toward our planet, they can trigger geomagnetic fluctuations and magnetic storms.
Experts have not yet specified the exact impact the expected phenomena will have on Earth. Two days ago, a strong M1.0 class flare had already been recorded on the Sun.
Changes in solar activity and geomagnetic fluctuations directly affect Earth's technical systems and the well-being of weather-sensitive people. Although experts currently predict only minor disturbances, it is important to monitor further developments in such situations, as the direction of the plasma ejection may be adjusted.
Particularly noteworthy is the fact that this is not the only incident in recent days, and a trend toward activation is already visible on the Sun. Over the coming days, it will become clear whether these flares will turn into a full-scale magnetic storm.
