A decrease in solar activity is expected in the near future.
Forecast of solar and geomagnetic activity for February 15-17, 2024 published US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Space Weather Prediction Center.
Geomagnetic storms are classified by power level – K-index – from 2 to 9. The higher the K-index, the stronger the storm and its consequences and impact on people and equipment.
Note that the forecast may still change, as solar activity researchers update their data every three hours.
After several days of powerful magnetic storms, on February 15, solar activity is expected to decrease to K-index 3 (green level), which corresponds to a weak magnetic storm. However, already on February 16, the magnetosphere will return to normal and will remain so until February 17.
Let us recall that we previously wrote about whether solar flares and magnetic storms can affect human health.
