During sun outbreaks, you should monitor your health more closely. During solar flares, you should monitor your health more closely. How magnetic storms affect people

Magnetic storms bring weather-dependent people many unpleasant minutes and even hours. And especially in the fall - when magnetic storms are also accompanied by cold temperatures, surges in atmospheric pressure and sometimes even a sharp change in weather. Therefore, weather-sensitive people need to know the schedule of magnetic storms for the second month of autumn. Ukrainian News will also tell you how to protect yourself from the negative influence of the geomagnetic environment.

Heliophysicists gave a long-term forecast of magnetic storms for October 2017. Meteoprog.ua reports this.

Perhaps the solar wind will excite the magnetosphere as early as October 1st. This will be the aftermath of a strong outbreak that occurred at the end of September. The probability that excitement will develop into a storm is approximately 2%, which is extremely low.

The solar wind caused by the solar flare on October 9 will reach Earth around October 11. The negative impact will immediately be quite strong. Almost all weather-sensitive people will feel this effect by the second day of magnetic excitation. Proper rest will help you cheer up - walks in the fresh air, meditation, relaxation.

Since the storm will be protracted, it will be harder and harder to hold on every day. Even healthy people can feel this pressure from the outside. Fatigue will be increased.

What can you do to relieve stress?

The reaction to magnetic storms is individual for each person. However, if you are susceptible to illness, have a weakened immune system and are in a stressful situation, your body may malfunction and react to the geomagnetic environment with a serious deterioration in well-being.

Diet

During magnetic storms, as well as before them, adjust your diet. You will need to refrain from alcohol and overeating, as well as from fatty, spicy and salty foods. At this time, it is better to focus on healthy foods. Autumn is a time of delicious and healthy seasonal fruits and vegetables - pay attention to them!

More water

Try to drink as much water as possible. Teas, compotes, and herbal infusions are also suitable. And try to refrain from coffee, strong tea and any invigorating drinks - with this you can overload the cardiovascular system. This is especially true before bedtime - these drinks will only worsen your well-being during the period of adaptation to cold weather.

Fresh air

During magnetic storms and especially during adaptation to cold and autumn, try to spend more time outdoors.

Relieve your nervous system

During the period of active negative natural phenomena, it is necessary to avoid intense sports, as well as various mental work. Try to avoid quarrels and conflicts. In addition, it is recommended not to take on work that requires concentration or monotony.

Not always feeling unwell, in particular pressure surges and causeless headaches- This is the body's reaction to changing weather. Sometimes the reason lies in solar activity and magnetic storms. Experts call the second month of autumn an ​​extremely calm and balanced month in terms of strong magnetic storm activity. But to protect your health, see the schedule of magnetic storms for October 2017, which was prepared in advance by experts.

Schedule of days of magnetic storms in October 2017

The month opens with a weak magnetic storm on October 1. And then dangerous days are expected at the end of October 2017, during which hypertensive patients should especially be careful, as they are likely to experience sharp jumps in blood pressure. The second magnetic storm this month is expected on October 29. Experts warn that it can become dangerous for people who suffer from insomnia. Irritation, mood swings, aggression and moral apathy may occur. October 30 - another weak magnetic storm that ends the month. Arrhythmia, sleep disturbances and headaches are possible.

Magnetic storm forecast for October 2017 - causes of occurrence

Any geomagnetic disturbances occurring on our planet directly depend on the processes that are occurring on the Sun at this time. While flares occur in the regions of dark spots on our star, plasma particles enter space and rush at high speed to the planets of the solar system. When these particles reach the atmosphere of our planet, they cause geomagnetic fluctuations in the Earth.

What to expect from magnetic storms

Everyone's body's reaction to geomagnetic storms is different. Scientists have not yet found an exact answer to the question of why solar activity can greatly affect our body. Most often, during magnetic storms and serious geomagnetic fluctuations, people experience loss of strength, stress, headaches, insomnia, disruption of the cardiovascular system, exacerbation of chronic diseases, decreased performance, increased adrenaline in the blood, and depression.

Magnetic storms can cause a deterioration in overall health and exacerbation of chronic diseases. People with cardiovascular diseases are especially affected. Possible reactions of the human body to magnetic storms are: headaches, sleep disturbances, loss of strength, pressure surges. If the schedule of magnetic storms in October 2017 is known in advance, then maximum efforts can be made to minimize the impact of natural negativity on the body. What needs to be done in order not to suffer from atmospheric change activity:

• refrain from drinking alcohol and eating large amounts of food, including fatty, spicy, and salty foods. During this period, it is better to observe moderation in food and try to focus on healthy foods;
• drink clean water more often. Do not neglect teas, compotes, chicory. During magnetic storms, you can drink soothing herbal tinctures or add them to tea. Motherwort, valerian, sage and some other herbs can help you survive magnetic fluctuations more easily. It is better to abstain from coffee, strong and invigorating teas;
• If possible, try to spend as much time outdoors as possible. It is advisable to postpone any heavy physical activity for another period;
• monitor your blood pressure;
• Magnetic storms can cause sudden changes in mood. Therefore, try to avoid quarrels and conflicts, nervous work and communication with people you don’t like;
• give yourself and your psyche a break. On days of maximum geomagnetic activity, avoid overwork.

Schedule of magnetic storms for October 2017 and methods of overcoming their impact.

The first month of autumn brought a lot of problems to all of us. In October, the Sun will be relatively calm, so you should not expect serious magnetic storms. Despite the relative calm, a couple of surprises await us.

Of course, in the modern world, Earth's magnetic activity due to the solar wind is rarely a surprise. Weather-sensitive people can know in advance the most dangerous days in any upcoming month.

Possible magnetic storms

Perhaps the solar wind will excite the magnetosphere as early as October 1st. This will be the aftermath of a strong outbreak that occurred at the end of September. The probability that excitement will develop into a storm is approximately 2%, which is extremely low.

It is also worth noting the possible excitation of the Earth’s magnetosphere during the period from October 23 to October 26. These days a storm of the first level or a long period of excitement is possible. Analysis of sunspots cannot yet give an exact answer, but the probability of a storm will be about 10%.

Magnetic storm from October 11 to 14

The solar wind caused by the solar flare on October 9 will reach Earth around October 11. The negative impact will immediately be quite strong. Almost all weather-sensitive people will feel this effect by the second day of magnetic excitation. Proper rest will help you cheer up - walks in the fresh air, meditation, relaxation.

Since the storm will be protracted, it will be harder and harder to hold on every day. Even healthy people can feel this pressure from the outside. Fatigue will be increased. It may seem to you that absolutely everything is against you, but no burden of problems will break you if you set yourself up correctly.

Increase your energy using any available methods: water procedures, walks, communication with pleasant people, and practicing your hobbies will help with this. Your health always depends to a large extent on yourself, so don’t try to look for reasons - look for solutions to problems.

To control your health and emotional background, everyone needs to know about magnetic storms in 2017. The schedule of geomagnetic disturbances for the period from January to December is in this article. We will also discuss the peculiarities of the state of the human body and measures to help on unfavorable days.

Magnetic storm calendar for 2017

Magnetic storms in January 2017

Increased activity of natural phenomena is not expected, so in January there is practically no danger to health. Minor cosmic flares are expected on the following dates:

Also, a major storm will occur on February 7; heart patients will have to stock up on medications; problems are expected for people with mental disorders. It is advisable to start taking measures in advance to prevent exacerbations of chronic diseases.

A strong storm is also expected on February 10, along with it, closer to the middle of the month, sharp temperature changes will begin, and the weather will be extremely unstable. On such days, weakened people become predisposed to colds and unexplained changes in mood.

There will be another storm on February 15th. Among other ailments, especially sensitive people will be bothered by nervousness and insomnia.

February 23 - there is a certain probability of disturbances in the earth's magnetosphere. On February 27 there will be a weak storm, and on February 28 a storm of medium strength.

There is no need to plan important matters and physical labor on the days of magnetic storms. It is better to monitor the weather forecast and wait for favorable days to lead an active life.

Magnetic storms in March 2017

The warm month of March will be difficult in terms of unfavorable days. This is due to a noticeable increase in the activity of natural phenomena. There are only a few quiet days this month.

These days, magnetic storms are recorded that are dangerous to the health of weather-sensitive people:

Experts predict outbreaks of medium intensity on the 13th and 16th of March. People prone to surges in blood pressure should pay attention to them. March 19, 21, 22 - these days are characterized by the highest negativism. As a result of the March outbreaks, not only weather-sensitive persons will suffer, but also ordinary people. Everyone has a high risk of increased irritability, bad mood, and apathy towards everything. Chronic diseases may worsen.

March 28 and 29 - moderately severe storms. Unpleasant sensations can overtake people with hypertension and various heart pathologies.

To minimize the harm to health and well-being from flares in space, you need to try to have less contact with people on critical dates, communicating calmly and only when necessary. It is useful to prepare sedatives and painkillers, and to work less physically.

Magnetic storms in April 2017

There are only 3 dates when space will be turbulent:

• April 1;
• April 18th;
• 20 April.

The geomagnetic situation in April will be relatively smooth. The only powerful flare will occur on the 18th. Extreme caution should be exercised by all pregnant women and mothers of infants, and elderly people, since magnetic flashes have the most destructive and vivid effect on these categories of people.

As for the 1st and 20th of this month, storms of moderate severity fall on them; heart patients and people with hypertension should be aware.

On days of magnetic storms, it is better not to plan deep mental work, seek solitude and tranquility, and use natural sedatives, for example, valerian, mint. We also advise you to eat right so as not to worsen the impact of space on your health.

We have analyzed unfavorable days for weather-sensitive people for all months of 2017. Approximate current data is provided. For greater accuracy, you can find on the Internet a more detailed geomagnetic schedule for the days and hours immediately before the date of interest. Next, we will present useful information for people who are susceptible to poor health during the days and hours of geomagnetic field disturbances.

Interesting facts about magnetic storms

What is a geomagnetic storm?

A geomagnetic storm should be understood as a disturbance in the geomagnetic environment. This phenomenon can last for several hours or days. Magnetospheric substorms and geomagnetic storms are a type of geomagnetic activity of nature. The provocateur of these phenomena is the penetration of aggressive high-speed solar wind close to the Earth; it interacts with the Earth’s magnetosphere in a special way.

Geomagnetic flares indicate the activation of a ring current located in the earth's radiation belts. The phenomenon of storms is a significant component of solar and terrestrial physics; in general, it is called space weather.

How do magnetic storms affect people?

Geomagnetic storms are an essential element in space weather and at the same time have an impact on communication systems, spacecraft navigation systems, power systems, pipelines, and transformers. Also, these natural phenomena can negatively affect the functioning of the human body.

Scientists are actively discussing the connection between solar activity and work-related injuries, transport accidents and various accidents.

The peculiarity of the deterioration of well-being from solar magnetic storms is that it has an early effect. This means that the body of different people is plunged into stress even before atmospheric fluctuations from the solar wind begin. For example, many people experience discomfort 1-2 days before the storm itself, which means they react specifically to solar flares.

It is known that about 70% of cases of heart attack, stroke and hypertensive crisis are associated with geomagnetic activity. This means that people with hypertension and various heart disorders should monitor themselves on unfavorable days and try to resist the disease.

Here are the most common complaints from weather dependent people:

• headaches (mostly migraines);
• critical acceleration of heart rate;
• general poor health along with decreased vitality;
• significant changes in blood pressure;
• insomnia.

According to scientists, such ailments appear as a result of oxygen starvation of the body from the effect of magnetic field fluctuations on blood circulation in the capillaries.

According to recent estimates, magnetic storms cause a huge number of people to suffer, namely, 50-75% of all people on Earth are exposed to them. Data vary from study to study, so this range is given.

It has been found that up to half of all people on Earth are predisposed to perfectly adapt to magnetic storms. This means that many have every chance of persistently resisting the effects of solar wind on health. That is, it is quite possible that individual people will practically not react to a whole series of magnetic storms that occur weekly. It has also been observed that the vast majority of young people ignore geomagnetic disturbances or react minimally to them.

There are some sources that deny the impact of geomagnetic fluctuations in space on human health and well-being. Gravitational phenomena associated with changes in the position of the Moon, Earth and other planets have little effect on the human body, as they cause insignificant disturbances in the magnetic field. According to opponents of the theory of harm from geomagnetic storms, there are much more aggressive factors in people’s lives, such as sharp ascents and descents, acceleration, shaking and braking when traveling in transport. Perhaps they are the ones who provoke problems with health and well-being.

Despite the fact that the opinions of scientists are divided, you need to monitor your health. Weather-sensitive people should regularly check relevant current news on the Internet or on TV to know on which days magnetic storms will take place. Perhaps some connection between ailments and fluctuations in the geomagnetic sphere will be noticed.

Our planet will be hit by a powerful magnetic storm caused by a massive explosion on the Sun. A high degree of geomagnetic disturbances will not only affect human health, but also create serious interference in the operation of technical devices. Be vigilant: an increase in industrial accidents and traffic accidents is expected.

Magnetic storm today 2017

The distinctive feature that it has is its growing nature. If the first critical day is of low intensity, then already on October 26, 2017 we can talk about a real geomagnetic storm!

Experts say that there will be two flares on the Sun, so two streams of solar wind alternately rush towards the Earth. The overlap of two energy flows will give the magnetic storm special brightness and power.

Solar flare October 2017

The density of the solar wind on “critical days” will double and provoke a sharp deterioration in the health of weather-sensitive people. Scientists warn that the number of magnetic storms will only increase in the future, as it becomes increasingly difficult to predict events in advance.

The daylight behaves unpredictably, as proven by the most powerful solar flare in the last 12 years in September. Now the daylight is experiencing the final period of its 11-year cycle of activity, but the powerful explosions shaking it indicate the complex nature of these phenomena.

What to do when there is a magnetic storm 2017

The best recipe against “critical days” in the Sun is healthy sleep, a balanced diet, avoiding watching news on TV and warm clothes in bright colors.

Scientists have found that warm shades such as orange, red and yellow increase the content of happiness hormones (dopamine, endorphin and serotonin) in the brain. Therefore, a new scarf, handbag or brightly colored gloves will have a beneficial effect on your overall well-being. On the days when strong magnetic storm October 25-27, 2017 comes into its own, do not forget about preventive treatment. So, aspirin will come to the aid of hypertensive patients, a gentle diet is indicated for diabetics, but people with diseases of the central nervous system need to drink sedative pills and medicinal herbs.
