According to scientists, at the peak of the activity recorded the day before, the geomagnetic index Kp reached levels of G4.3-G4.7, making this event the strongest of the year. However, expectations for reaching G5 levels were not met.
Experts noted that solar activity has significantly decreased after a series of powerful flares, and the likelihood of new strong flares occurring at this time is extremely low. The centers of solar activity have already moved away from the direct line between the Sun and Earth, which also reduces their impact on our planet, they added.
After the current magnetic storm ends, a prolonged stabilization period is expected, which may last until the end of November, as reported by the laboratory.
