According to scientists, on the night of November 6 the Sun produced a second major plasma ejection (we wrote about the first one here), at level M8.65, directed toward Earth. Its speed is estimated at roughly 1,000 kilometers per second. This flow will catch up with and partially absorb the previous one, forming a single cloud that will strike the planet’s magnetosphere on Friday, November 7. "If the calculations are confirmed, we will face a G4-level storm, and possibly an even higher level — G5. This is the strongest degree of magnetic disturbances," the laboratory’s specialists note. By the morning of November 6 the geomagnetic index had reached G2–G3 values, corresponding to moderate and strong storms. At the same time, plasma from the first flares that occurred 2–3 days earlier has already begun to affect Earth. According to scientists, this indicates that the ejections are occurring at increased speed and at an angle directed toward our planet. According to forecasts, the main phase of the storm will begin on the night from Friday into Saturday and may last several days. During this period Earth’s magnetic field will experience significant strain. Specialists at the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IKI RAN) note that the "strike" will be grazing — the main mass of plasma will pass by Earth, but peripheral parts will still touch the planet. However, scientists warn that such calculations have repeatedly proven to be too optimistic. According to specialists, the flares observed in recent days are among the most powerful in recent years. They could lead to bright auroras, disruptions to communications, navigation and satellite operations.
