The magnetic field is lively.
Kp is at 2.0 right now, nice and low. A later climb to around Kp 5 is in the forecast. If you are weather-sensitive, pace yourself and stay hydrated.

Recommendations for today
Tuned to the current Kp and your profile (sensitivity 7.2/10).
- Move heavy meetings to tomorrow morningThe activity peak is expected from 18:00 to 22:00 โ better to rest than to push a deadline.
- Drink more water โ at least 2 litresAt elevated Kp, vessels react more strongly. Hydration cuts headache risk by about 30%.
- Sleep from 22:30 to 06:30 is criticalLast G1 episode you slept poorly โ the migraine started 14 hours after Kp 5.
- Light exercise instead of strength training20 min of walking or yoga. A high heart rate during a storm raises arrhythmia risk for sensitive people.
- Cut coffee in the afternoonCaffeine amplifies the vascular response. Swap for herbal tea or water with lemon.
- Turn on Do Not Disturb from 21:00Less blue light and fewer stressful notifications = lower cortisol before sleep on a storm day.
On storms, health and space

A mild geomagnetic storm is now underway
A geomagnetic storm has started and is currently active. Weather-sensitive people may notice mild headaches, tiredness, sleep changes, or a sense of pressure, but the event is expected to remain minor.

Can weather sensitivity get stronger with age?
On average, yes: in representative surveys about 27% of people aged 16-29 call themselves weather-sensitive versus 54% of those aged 60+. But the picture is not one-way - joints, circulation, heat tolerance and sleep tend to become more weather-reactive, while migraine usually fades.

Calm space weather now, with a minor storm expected soon
Geomagnetic conditions are quiet at the moment, but a minor storm is forecast in the coming days. Most people are likely to feel little change today, while weather-sensitive people may notice a mild shift when activity rises.

Is weather sensitivity linked to chronic illnesses?
Yes โ people living with migraine, joint conditions, asthma or heart disease report weather-related symptoms far more often than healthy people of the same age. A chronic condition does not create weather sensitivity, but it leaves less physiological reserve to absorb everyday changes in pressure, temperature and humidity.
Read โMagnetic storms & wellbeing, explained
Quick answers about the Kp index, how geomagnetic storms may affect weather-sensitive people, and how our forecast works.
What is the Kp index?
The Kp index is a 0โ9 scale of global geomagnetic activity measured by ground magnetometers. Values of 5 and above mark a geomagnetic storm (NOAA levels G1โG5). We update it from NOAA SWPC and GFZ Potsdam data.
How do storms affect wellbeing?
Some people report headaches, fatigue, poor sleep or mood changes around strong geomagnetic activity and rapid pressure swings. This is a correlation, not a medical diagnosis โ we simply help you notice patterns and take it easy when activity is high.
What to do during a magnetic storm?
During an active period, weather-sensitive people can ease their load: sleep enough, stay hydrated, avoid overexertion and reschedule demanding tasks when possible. Log how you feel in the diary to learn your own triggers.
How does the forecast work?
Our forecast combines NOAA SWPC space-weather models with live solar-wind and Kp readings to estimate geomagnetic activity for the days ahead. It shows the expected Kp range and NOAA G-level so you can plan ahead.
