Wait for a magnetic storm: scientists announced the forecast for October 16

During the day, the planetary Kp index in Novosibirsk will not exceed the mark of 2 points, which is classified as a calm geomagnetic environment. Only in the earliest hours of the morning, minimal, barely noticeable fluctuations of up to 2.3 points are possible, caused by the residual influence of the weak solar wind, but they will pass completely unnoticed both for high-precision technology and for the well-being of people. No dangerous geomagnetic storms of the G1 level and above are predicted for this day.

Such a lull is great news for weather-sensitive Novosibirsk. Friday will be held in the most comfortable mode, so you will not have to keep an emergency medicine kit on hand. And although weather forecasters recommend always to observe the basic mode of sleep and rest, external space factors this time will not be able to spoil the city's final working week and plans for the evening.

Earlier, MK in Novosibirsk reported that snow and rain will be delayed until the end of October.
