Scientists predict strong magnetic storms on Earth on September 2

Powerful solar strike: Earth in the path of collision with a plasma cloud, serious magnetic storms expected. According to data from the solar astronomy laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, an M2.76 class flare has been recorded on the Sun, ejecting a colossal volume of hot plasma into space, heading directly toward our planet.

"Space coronagraphs LASCO and CCOR-1 confirmed the movement of solar plasma toward Earth after the M2.76 flare... The trajectory and size of the plasma cloud leave no chance for it to pass by our planet. According to preliminary calculations, the solar matter will reach Earth's orbit on Tuesday, September 2, triggering magnetic storms with intensities ranging from G2 to G4," specialists report.

Scientists express serious concern about the possibility of repeated ejections. "At present, the greatest threat is posed by repeated ejections, the probability of which is extremely high, given the significant reserves of the Sun's flare energy. We observed a similar scenario in May 2024, when the strongest magnetic storms in the last 20 years were caused not by a single powerful ejection, but by a series of consecutive medium-intensity ejections," researchers warn.
