Under the impact of the cosmic element: scientists warned about the peak of a protracted magnetic storm on November 8

The geomagnetic environment on November 8 will be undulating. The most noticeable and sharp impacts occurred in the night and morning hours, when the index of geomagnetic activity Kp locally reached peak values of 5 to 7 points. In the daytime and in the evening, a short-term background stabilization and a decrease in the index are expected, but the magnetosphere will still be in an excited and tense state. Scientists of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the IKI RAS emphasize that the Earth only enters the dense layers of solar matter, so new unexpected bursts are possible during the day.

For weather-dependent citizens, this day can be a serious test of strength. Against the background of sharp fluctuations in the magnetic field, suffering from cardiovascular diseases, hypertension and chronic ailments can feel severe headaches, migraines, weakness, jumps in blood pressure and increased anxiety. Doctors strongly recommend these days to reduce physical and emotional stress, give up strong coffee and heavy food, drink more clean water and follow the schedule of taking prescribed medications. A beneficial effect on the body will have a calm walk in the fresh air and a full 8-hour sleep.
