Geomagnetic storm from the sun expected to blast Earth tonight — here’s what to brace for

A storm could be-fall us.
Colorful leaves and cooler temperatures aren’t the only thing autumn is potentially bringing.
Meteorologists predict that Earth could be blasted by a geomagnetic storm on Wednesday due to its timing with the autumnal equinox.
A coronal mass ejection (CME) — when plasma and magnetic particles burst forth from the sun’s surface — occurred on Sunday, the same day as the official start of fall, Space.com reported.
It reportedly occurred when a sunspot called AR3835 unexpectedly spouted an M-class solar flare — something scientists hadn’t predicted as said sunspot had appeared stable.
The CME could cause a geomagnetic storm in this instance due to a phenomenon called the Russell-McPherron effect.

Over a period of three days, with limited VPN connection, an eyewitness currently in Tehran — who, for her safety, is concealing her identity — shared her account of life under a country in the midst of battle with The Post’s Natasha Pearlman.
