Top 7 Geomagnetic Storms

Solar Storm, September 1, 1859

On that day, astronomer Richard Carrington recorded the brightest flare, a coronal mass ejection that traveled directly toward Earth in 18 hours. It was called the Carrington Event afterwards. That solar flare caused a shutdown of telegraph networks around the world. Electrical shots led to a fire on stations. People were able to witness polar lights all over the planet even in the Caribbean.

Geomagnetic Storm, July 21, 2012

This geomagnetic storm was a result of extremely powerful coronal mass ejection of the Sun. The active region of the Sun where the energy splash came from was not directly pointed at the Earth. The geomagnetic storm following the flair turned out to be a side effect of the mass-energy release.

Geomagnetic Storm, May 14, 2019

The recent solar flare that triggered a strong magnetic storm had a significant impact on our planet. Residents of many large cities complained about being under the weather. According to astrophysicists, the power of this geomagnetic disturbance was peaked at the G3 level (out of five possible). This magnetic storm was active until the evening, gradually declining.
