A predictive model of POT calculated that a solar storm will reach the Land and will affect some signals. It will be next July 19 when the remnants of this phenomenon reach our atmosphere. Which would wreak some havoc on the radio and navigation systems.
The information was shared by Dr. Tamitha Skova, who is dedicated to studying the weather in space. The forecast of the model POT estimates that a ‘filament’ of energy released by a recent solar storm will arrive in the early hours of July 19.
What its arrival on our planet implies is a disruption in GPS and radio signals. Fortunately, it would only affect the weakest, so there would not be a great impact on the global level or on the communications of important means of transport, such as airplanes.
In addition to this affectation, the POT estimates that the solar storm will cause northern lights. These could be seen at points where they are not used to and with relative ease. The most affected area will be where it is already night at the time the impact arrives.

It should be noted that there is no reason to be alarmed. Since the effects of the solar storm will only be felt in some electronic devices and in those with very low signals. We would just like to know where we could see some Northern Lights without going to the polar areas.
What are solar storms and why does NASA study them?
Solar storms are phenomena that usually happen within our star king. After a large accumulation of energy, it can be released in different ways. Sometimes, matter from the sun can come out with such force that it reaches the rest of the planets. Among them the Land.
The POT is constantly monitoring solar activity for the study of space weather. Although the next one is nothing to worry about, a very strong storm could have more disastrous effects.. Mainly because it could cause a total collapse of communication and power networks.
