Geomagnetic activity 11 May 2025

Description

6/9
Moderate storm

On May 11, 2025, a geomagnetic activity level classified as kIndex 6 indicates a Moderate geomagnetic storm. This level of activity is associated with increased disturbances in the Earth's magnetic field, primarily due to solar wind and coronal mass ejections from the sun. For weather-sensitive individuals, this level of geomagnetic storm may result in a range of physical and psychological effects. People prone to migraines or headaches may experience heightened symptoms due to changes in electromagnetic fields. Additionally, those with certain cardiovascular conditions might notice fluctuations in their health, as geomagnetic activity has been linked to increased heart rate variability and other cardiovascular responses. Moreover, mood disorders may be exacerbated during significant solar events, leading to feelings of anxiety or irritability. While the storm's impact varies from person to person, it is advisable to stay hydrated, maintain a balanced diet, and minimize exposure to electronic devices when possible to alleviate discomfort during such periods of heightened geomagnetic activity.
