Quiet geomagnetic conditions are expected to continue
Earth’s magnetic field remains calm, and no storm-level activity is expected in the coming days. Weather-sensitive people are likely to have a fairly comfortable period with only minor fluctuations at most.

Earth’s magnetic field stays calm, with quiet days ahead
The geomagnetic field is currently calm, and no storm-level activity is expected. Minor unsettled periods may still appear, but the overall outlook remains reassuring for the next few days.
Read →Why do magnetic storms happen?
Magnetic storms happen when bursts of fast, magnetised solar wind from the Sun — coronal mass ejections or high-speed streams from coronal holes — reach Earth and disturb its protective magnetic field. Here is the full chain of events, in plain language.

Geomagnetic conditions calming and recovery underway
The recent geomagnetic disturbance has passed and the magnetic field is returning to quiet as of 19:49 UTC. NOAA forecasts only minor unsettled activity over the next few days, with no storm-level conditions expected.

How often do magnetic storms happen?
It depends on strength: minor magnetic storms occur many times a month, while extreme storms come only a few times per 11-year solar cycle, peaking around solar maximum.

Minor geomagnetic storm underway with possible mild effects
A geomagnetic storm is underway as of 18:49 UTC, with the geomagnetic field elevated. Weather sensitive people may notice mild symptoms such as headaches, sleep changes or slight blood pressure fluctuations during the next day.

How long does a magnetic storm last?
It varies widely: the most intense phase typically lasts only a few hours, a complete storm usually spans one to three days, and the slow recovery of a large storm can take up to a week.

Why keep a wellbeing journal on MeteoStorms?
A thirty-second daily entry does two big things at once: it builds you a personal, data-driven picture of whether magnetic storms, pressure drops, wind and temperature swings really affect how you feel, and it adds one anonymous data point to an open global study we are assembling: 100,000 people across every continent, age group and climate. Here is what the journal gives you back, from personal recommendations to a doctor-ready symptom diary, and why your ordinary days matter as much as your bad ones.

How is a weak magnetic storm different from a strong one?
Weak and strong geomagnetic storms are the same event at very different intensities. Here is how the Kp index and NOAA's G1–G5 scale tell minor everyday activity apart from rare, powerful storms.

At what Kp index does a geomagnetic storm begin?
A geomagnetic storm officially starts at Kp 5 — the same as a G1 (minor) storm on NOAA's scale. Anything from Kp 0 to 4 (quiet, unsettled, or active) sits below the storm line.

Geomagnetic conditions returning to calm for now
As of 09 June 2026 16:59 UTC the geomagnetic field has settled to quiet to active levels and is recovering after recent disturbance. Forecast shows low activity for the next two days with a small rise on 11 June that remains below storm thresholds.
