Geomagnetic Activity Report for September 24, 2024
On September 24, 2024, the geomagnetic activity level, represented by a K-Index of 2, signals a time of quiet geomagnetic conditions, according to NOAA. This low activity indicates minimal interference from solar winds and cosmic rays on Earth's magnetic field, producing stable atmospheric conditions. Those susceptible to changes in geomagnetic activity, such as individuals prone to headaches, migraines, or mood swings, are likely to experience fewer symptoms during such calm periods. The lack of intense geomagnetic storms contributes to stable weather patterns, offering a more predictable and comfortable environment for outdoor activities or travel, thereby enhancing overall health and well-being.
No significant geomagnetic storms, classified as G1 (Minor) or greater, are expected. Likewise, no notable transient or recurrent solar wind features are predicted. Solar radiation storms of S1 (Minor) or greater are also not anticipated, with no significant active regions favoring their production. However, there is a potential for R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) radio blackouts on this date.
Therefore, those planning activities sensitive to atmospheric or geomagnetic disruptions can proceed with increased confidence in the stability and predictability of the day's conditions.
