The magnetic storm will subside on 18 March, but will strike again on the 19th

This was reported by Meteoagent.

The red-level magnetic storm, which lasted several days, has subsided. On Wednesday, 18 March, the geomagnetic field is forecast to be calm.

According to experts, space weather on 18 March will correspond to a green level. The expected reading is 2.7.

Such a K-index is considered a sign of a weak magnetic storm. It does not affect the well-being of weather-sensitive people.

However, as early as Thursday, 19 March, the situation may change. According to preliminary forecasts, solar activity could rise to 6.3 points.

This level corresponds to a red-level magnetic storm. During this period, weather-sensitive people may experience headaches, apathy, anxiety and irritability.

Experts remind us that weather sensitivity is not considered a separate illness, but rather a collection of symptoms. A relatively small number of people have a genetic predisposition to it, but 50–70% of the world’s population may experience such changes to varying degrees.

Magnetic storms usually last two to three days. Everyone reacts to them, as every cell in the body has its own charge, but most people do not notice this because the human body has generally adapted to solar activity.

Geomagnetic fluctuations most often affect the elderly and those with chronic heart and vascular conditions.

Symptoms that may cause discomfort on such days include insomnia, impaired concentration, increased fatigue, irritability and headaches.

During a magnetic storm, experts advise supporting the body in simple ways. In particular, it is worth choosing healthy food, drinking clean water, getting a good night’s sleep and walking for at least half an hour, as walking strengthens the nervous system.

They also recommend taking more frequent showers or visiting a sauna. It is believed that people who enjoy such activities are less likely to be affected by temperature changes.
