On Monday, October 27, magnetic activity on Earth will remain at a low level — according to the meteoagent service, the K-index, which shows the potential for a magnetic storm, will not exceed 4 today (and the storm is considered to be level 5). However, starting Tuesday, October 28, the situation may change: the K-index is expected to be around 5, and a magnetic storm is also forecast for Wednesday, October 29.
The cause is a coronal mass ejection on the Sun on October 24, reported by the British Geological Survey. Early analysis suggests that this mass could have "slipped" into our planet, raising the possibility of a magnetic storm.
For people sensitive to weather conditions and solar activity, there are a number of recommendations for such days:
-
Get more rest and avoid stress - this helps the nervous system adapt.
-
Make sure you get good sleep and walks in the fresh air.
-
Maintain water balance: drink clean water, herbal teas; avoid excessive coffee and alcohol, which can increase blood pressure or worsen headaches.
-
Diet: less salty and fatty foods, more vegetables, fish, and foods with magnesium (e.g., nuts, bananas, greens).
-
Light exercise, breathing exercises, or a contrast shower will help relieve tension.
Important: Although a magnetic storm is a natural phenomenon and does not automatically mean health problems, people with chronic diseases (cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, or weather-dependent) should be vigilant. If you experience headaches, palpitations, or anxiety, you should consult a doctor.
