Washington, USA – The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced the detection of a powerful solar flare of category M7.4 emanating from
the active sunspot AR4274 on the surface of the sun on Wednesday.
This resulted in a massive coronal mass ejection expected
to reach Earth within the next 24 to 48 hours.
This could cause a level G3 geomagnetic storm.
Temporary disturbances
According to Spaceweather, a website specializing in monitoring solar and space phenomena,
The wave of charged solar particles may cause temporary disturbances.
This applies to wireless communication, navigation, and satellite systems.
In addition to the possibility of minor fluctuations in high-voltage electricity networks.
The administration confirmed that the expected effects do not pose a direct threat to human life.

Astronomers explained that the storm was caused by massive clouds of plasma.
Magnetic fields ejected from the outer atmosphere of the sun,
Which interact with the Earth’s magnetic field upon arrival,
Causing electrical currents and disturbances in the upper layers of the atmosphere.

Peak solar activity
Authorities in the fields of aviation, communications and energy have
called for precautionary measures to be taken in anticipation of the expected storm’s effects.
She noted that the peak of solar activity is expected to occur on Friday morning.
