A geomagnetic solar storm is about to hit Earth. Whatever may happen, dangers to Europe
Solar storm on Earth It will be a special Halloween that created space for us. Earth may be tonight The earth was struck by a magnetic storm Class G3 (very powerful). The upcoming alert was operated by NASA. The “flare” event that caused the solar storm, officially known as the Coronal Mass Ejection (CME), was observed last Thursday at a speed of 1,260 km per second on the side of the sun directly facing our planet. Consequences? They range from mild, to spectacular occurrence of northern lights, to problems on satellites, interference in radio communications and electronic devices, to very serious blackouts. In South America, the event has already caused severe short-wave radio blackouts. Polar auroras that are visible to the naked eye even at 50 latitude are the most likely effects, so either from Europe like Belgium or from Oregon to the United States. Further weak storms may follow each other over the next few days, when successive waves of CME will cross the Earth.
