The Earth may experience a minor solar storm today; it may cause power outages and satellite disruptions

The space stations have observed a flare-up of activity marking the peak of our Sun's magnetic 11-year cycle. Due to this, forecasters warn that a G1 class solar storm could strike the earth on Wednesday.

The G1 class of geomagnetic storms is relatively harmless. Some areas may suffer power grid failures, satellite functions may be disrupted, and migratory birds may be affected.

A solar storm is caused by fast-moving solar winds that break free from the Sun's atmosphere. Since the start of the year, solar flares and coronal mass ejections have been observed as part of the Sun's activity phase.

As the Sun is located 150 million kilometers away from the Earth, it is at a distance of 150 million kilometers. There is still a flurry of activity on the giant star, which can be felt here on Earth in the form of a flurry of light.

As an example, at 23.09 UTC, which corresponds to 6:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on Sunday last week, our satellites detected an explosion in the northeastern region of the Sun along with a C9.3-class solar flare.

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory observed hot debris flying away from the blast site,' according to spaceweather.com, which tracks solar activity. As a result of the explosion, a new sunspot group could emerge over the northeastern limb of the Sun later this week.

A solar flare can travel at speeds of up to 2.9 million kilometers per hour. In response, Earth's magnetic field is slightly compressed by the waves of high-energy particles.

The Sun's atmosphere has a southern hole, which is releasing gaseous material. Combined with strong solar winds, this release might form a minor G1-class solar storm on Aug. 3, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said.

The solar flares would result in aurora borealis, or Northern lights, as the solar radiation slams into the atmosphere at odd angles, causing light to be refracted. Canadian and Alaskan skies should be filled with auroras this time.

There have been numerous solar storms around the globe in the past few centuries. However, the largest is the 1859 Carrington Event, which released roughly the same amount of energy as a billion atomic bombs with a 1-megaton yield.
