Magnetic storms in Ukraine in June 2025: dates and tips for weather-sensitive people
27 May 06:27
June 2025 will bring Ukraine several waves of magnetic storms caused by geomagnetic bursts on the Sun. According to the Space Weather Prediction Center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), residents of Ukraine will feel the impact of weak, medium, and powerful magnetic storms at different times of the month, "Komersant Ukrainian" reports
Experts warn that geomagnetic activity will be unstable throughout the month, with a peak in mid-June.
Magnetic storms in June 2025
According to NOAA’s preliminary forecast, magnetic storms of varying intensity are expected in June 2025.
Here are the key dates when geomagnetic activity may affect the health of Ukrainians:
- june 2-4: Weak magnetic storms.
- june 9-12: Magnetic storms of medium intensity.
- june 18-21: Powerful magnetic storms.
- june 27-30: Weak magnetic storms.
Experts note that this forecast is preliminary, as the Sun’s activity may change. Meteorologically sensitive people are advised to closely monitor space weather updates.
“The forecast is preliminary, as the Sun’s activity may change. At the same time, weather-sensitive people need to take care of their health on these days,” the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center said.
What are magnetic storms and how do they affect health?
Magnetic storms occur due to solar activity bursts that cause geomagnetic disturbances in the Earth’s magnetosphere. These phenomena can affect meteorologically sensitive people, causing symptoms such as headaches, increased fatigue, irritability, sleep problems, and exacerbation of chronic diseases. People with cardiovascular disease, hypertension, or neurological disorders are particularly vulnerable.
The most powerful storms forecast for June 18-21 may have a more pronounced impact, so weather-sensitive people should be especially careful these days.
How to prepare for magnetic storms?
To minimize the impact of magnetic storms on health, weather-sensitive people should follow these recommendations:
- Follow the daily routine: Go to bed on time and avoid excessive physical and emotional stress.
- Drink enough water: Dehydration can exacerbate symptoms of weather sensitivity.
- Avoid caffeine and alcohol: These substances can increase irritability and disrupt sleep.
- Monitor your blood pressure: People with hypertension should have their blood pressure measured regularly and have the necessary medications with them.
- Spend time outdoors: Taking light walks can help reduce stress and improve well-being.
- Consult your doctor: If you have a chronic illness, consult a specialist in advance about preventive measures.
June 2025 promises to be full of geomagnetic activity, so weather-sensitive people should prepare in advance. Stay tuned for forecast updates, as solar activity changes daily.
