In the first half of December 2024, increased geomagnetic activity is expected.
It is good to know what the activity of the Sun will be and when the geomagnetic storms will occur in order to minimize the possible negative effects on health. Magnetic storms are natural phenomena that appear as a result of the interaction between the Sun and the Earth’s magnetic field.
When a coronal mass ejection (CME) or fast solar wind erupts from the Sun, they can cause disturbances in the Earth’s magnetosphere. Such storms can affect health, satellite systems, radio communications, navigation and even power grids, as well as cause aurora borealis. Magnetic storms in December 2024 During December 2024, the Sun will become particularly active.
An increase in solar flares and coronal mass ejections will lead to more powerful magnetic storms. Although these storms are not new to our planet, their power and frequency have increased in recent years, causing scientists and the population to pay more attention to this phenomenon.
Several magnetic storms of varying intensity are expected in December 2024: A weak magnetic storm will occur in December on the 2nd, 3rd, 8th, 11th, 20th, 29th and 31st, and most people will not notice its effects. A medium-strength magnetic storm will hit Earth on December 6-7, 15 and 17.
Weather-sensitive people may feel a worsening of their health. The strongest magnetic storms are expected on December 1, 12 and 16. Its influence will be felt by everyone, so it would be appropriate to prepare in time the necessary medicines and other means to alleviate the health condition. How to protect ourselves from magnetic storms Although magnetic storms are a natural process, there are several ways to reduce their negative impact on health and the environment.
Maintaining health. People who are sensitive to changes in the magnetic field are advised to avoid stress and overwork, to rest more and to ensure that they have a balanced diet. Keeping calm during a magnetic storm can help prevent many negative effects. Avoiding technical disruptions. During magnetic storms, you can limit the use of satellite technology or provide additional protection measures for electronic and technical equipment. Observation and forecasting. Scientists actively research solar activity, which allows them to forecast magnetic storms in advance. Information about storms allows people to prepare for possible difficulties.
