Novosibirsk residents warned of a lull before a powerful geomagnetic storm

The planetary Cr-index, reflecting the level of perturbation of the Earth's magnetic field, during the day is recorded at minimum levels - from 0.7 to 2 points at a critical storm threshold of 5 points. A slight background gain of up to 3 points is possible in the morning (approximately from 10:00 to 13:00 local time), but this fluctuation is classified as a natural ripple and will not affect the operation of equipment or human health. The interplanetary magnetic field now reliably holds the protective shield of the planet, protecting it from the effects of solar plasma.

For weather-sensitive Novosibirsk this day will be comfortable. Experts note that there is no need to introduce any strict restrictions, however, to maintain excellent tone against the background of changing autumn weather, you should follow simple rules:

It is worth remembering that the current lull is temporary. Astrophysicists warn that on Thursday, September 24, the Earth will be covered by a tangible geomagnetic shock with a capacity of up to 5-6 points, provoked by a coronal hole on the Sun that unfolded to the planet. Therefore, the environment is better to use for proper rest and preparation of the body for the upcoming space storm.
