A series of powerful geostrikes continues

On Monday, October 5, the Earth will be covered by a 5-point magnetic storm. According to the portal “Gismeo”, with the onset of early morning, the KP index will drop to 4 points out of 10 possible. By 6:00, the force of geo-attacks will decrease to 3 points.

The risk of a new magnetic storm on October 5 is estimated at 26%. At the same time, the probability of increasing the power of geostrikes reaches 36%.
The solar wind speed increased to 584 km / s and is characterized as increased. The solar flux density exceeds the standard values. But the induction of the interplanetary magnetic field is within the normal range.
During powerful geomagnetic disturbances, meteoropaths may experience deterioration. Possible headaches, nausea, the appearance of general weakness, dizziness. On such days, doctors recommend observing a sleep regimen, avoiding excessive stress and stress, eating more fresh vegetables and fruits, drinking enough water.
