Solar flares are divided into four letter categories based on their intensity: X-class flares are the most intense, followed by M, C and the weakest, B.
NASA has discovered an explosion of dark plasma on the Sun that could affect the power grid and human health. The Daily Mail reports this in connection with NASA.
This “cold” solar flare has a temperature of about 36,000 degrees Fahrenheit (F), which is about a quarter of the temperature of a “hot” solar flare, whose average temperature is 144,000 degrees Fahrenheit ( F). Hot solar flares are better studied by scientists.
According to a 2023 study, low-temperature solar flares produce “higher peak frequencies of gyrosynchrotron radiation,” a form of radiation responsible for the flare’s intense and destructive radio emission.
The recent M-class “cold” solar flare occurred in a sunspot region called AR3757 on Sunday, July 21.
According to Meteoagent, on Tuesday, July 23, the magnetic storm will reach level five. Tomorrow, July 24, the storm is expected to increase to six points, and on Thursday, July 25, the storm will begin to weaken to four points.
During a magnetic storm, the following symptoms are observed:
-
depressed mood and irritability;
-
increase or decrease in blood pressure;
-
did not sleep well;
-
joint pain;
-
apathy or restlessness;
-
headache and dizziness;
-
exacerbation of chronic diseases.
What to do to feel better during a magnetic storm:
-
eat healthy and exercise;
-
get more rest and sleep;
-
drink more water or herbal tea;
-
do not drink alcoholic beverages or fatty foods;
-
add more herbs and seasonal vegetables;
-
avoid stress and disturbing events;
-
add a contrast shower before bed to your daily schedule;
-
Check your home medicine cabinet for needed medication.
It was previously reported that the Earth faced a strong magnetic storm of magnitude 9, which began on July 11.
