- NASA confirmed that Earth is experiencing its strongest geomagnetic storm of the year, classified as a G5 event.
- The storm was triggered by multiple solar eruptions called coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that merged into a large plasma wave before reaching Earth.
- The event caused widespread aurora sightings across northern Europe, Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
- Scientists observed a sharp drop in the Disturbance Storm Time (Dst) index, indicating high geomagnetic activity.
- The storm disrupted satellite communications, GPS systems, and power grids, similar to the 2003 “Halloween Storms.”
