“Red zone” for meteorologically dependent: Pskov covered a crushing magnetic storm

The morning of November 9 brought residents of the Pskov region unpleasant news from weather forecasters. Due to a series of powerful solar flares, the Earth was in a stream of dense solar wind, which provoked a sharp deterioration in the geomagnetic environment.

Today, the planet will be in the so-called red zone. The main blow of the elements will be in the first half of the day: the strength of the disturbances will reach 4-5 points (moderate storm level G1-G2). By the evening, the storm will subside a little, but the background will remain elevated (about 3 points) until the night.

For those who are sensitive to the vagaries of space weather, this day will be a real challenge. Migraines, causeless fatigue and pressure problems are possible. Doctors strongly recommend today to take care of yourself: less nervous, drink more water, walk and not overload the body with heavy food. Hypertensives and people with chronic diseases should keep medications on hand.
