The strongest geomagnetic storm of this year is expected tomorrow. Director of Hydrometeorology and Monitoring Center Levon Azizyan wrote about this on his Facebook page.
"Currently, even in a weakened form (without taking into account the night emission), the forecasts of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences show storms in the G3-G4 range, that is, they range from strong to very strong. If recalculated during the day, this range will probably move to the G4-G5 (extremely strong) range.
This means that disturbances in the Earth's magnetic field can have a significant impact on both technical systems and human well-being.
What can a magnetic storm do to us?
As a rule, the disorders caused by it adversely affect the elderly and people with weak immune systems. Those who are sensitive to this phenomenon may experience fatigue, headaches, malaise, fluctuations in blood pressure and poor concentration.
How to protect yourself?
During magnetic storms, doctors recommend maintaining a diet of fruits and vegetables without animal fats. Drinking lots of water also helps a lot. Spend a few hours in the fresh air.'
