In Moscow, in the coming days, the northern lights - an extremely rare phenomenon for these latitudes - may be seen again. The reason is a strong flare on the Sun, which will cause a magnetic storm.
Moscow will soon be covered by a strong magnetic storm - it will be so powerful that it can cause the northern lights, an employee of the IZMIRAN Space Weather Forecast Center, Maria Abunina said.
According to her, a powerful flare occurred on the Sun. It will reach the Earth in the near future, thus, we will feel its consequences soon.
“Therefore, we expect a magnetic storm, perhaps one of the strongest this year,”
- the scientist said.
