Geomagnetic activity has subsided, returning to normal levels after an extended period of disturbances, according to the Laboratory of Solar Astronomy of IKI RAN and ISZF SB RAS. Forecasts indicate that these conditions will persist throughout the day.

The recent geomagnetic event, lasting 66 hours, marked the longest continuous period of disturbances and storms since April 2017. Scientists suggest that the likelihood of a resurgence is minimal, and any potential echoes would be weak.

A significant magnetic storm initiated on Thursday and continued for over 24 hours. This was followed by an even stronger storm on Sunday. While the intensity briefly decreased, it soon rebounded.

The storms produced auroras, which were prominently visible in Canada and the USA due to the Earth’s geomagnetic pole’s inclination. The auroras were not observed in St. Petersburg or other parts of Europe.

Australia also experienced a notable aurora display with red hues on the night of June 1-2.
