(Daily Point) — Earth is currently grappling with a geomagnetic solar storm, classified at a severe G4 rating, potentially affecting global technology.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Space Weather Prediction Center reports that such a severe storm signifies a significant disruption in Earth’s magnetic field. However, the center reassures the public not to expect adverse impacts but to stay adequately informed.

The center has outlined potential effects of the storm, including possible increases in voltage control problems, though they emphasize these issues can be easily mitigated. Additionally, GPS disruptions may persist for an extended period during the storm’s duration.

Forecasters predict the storm will subside to a G2 (moderate) level before potentially rising again to G3 (strong) by March 25th.
