Magnetic storms in Bohuniya

Magnetic storm in Bohuniya today: planetary Kp = 1.0 (G0). Over the last 7 days the maximum Kp above Bohuniya reached 4.7 (G0); storm days (G1+) this week: 0.

Bohuniya sits at geomagnetic latitude 47.6°. The nearest magnetic observatory continuously recording the field is Kyiv (Dymer), 129 km away. Population 147,324.

Magnetic storms and health of Bohuniya residents: at Kp ≥ 5 weather-sensitive people may experience pressure swings, headaches, sleep issues. Especially pensioners and people with hypertension should watch the forecast. During a storm — hydrate more, avoid alcohol and strong coffee, avoid intense physical load.

Technical consequences for Bohuniya at G3+: GPS, HF radio and precise positioning systems may glitch. Drivers on long routes should watch the forecast for the next 24–72 hours. Data source: NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center, refreshed every 10 minutes.

Over Bohuniya during the last 24 hours. Kp reached a maximum of 3.3 around 03:00 local time and dipped to 1.0. The planetary trend over the past 6 hours is falling — the magnetosphere near Bohuniya is in the recovery phase. So far this month the planet has logged no G1+ storm days with a G1 or stronger geomagnetic storm.

Aurora visibility threshold for Bohuniya. At a geomagnetic latitude of 47.6°, the minimum Kp giving a realistic chance of visible auroras above Bohuniya is about Kp ≥ 7. The current equatorial Dst index is 0 nT — the magnetosphere is in a quiet phase. Dst complements Kp by showing how long and how deep a storm's main phase has been — useful context when checking whether auroras are likely tonight.

Weather and atmospheric pressure in Bohuniya right now. Temperature +18.3°C, atmospheric pressure 746.2 mm Hg (994.9 hPa), cloud cover 58%, humidity 36%, wind 13 km/h. During G1+ geomagnetic storms, swings in atmospheric pressure tend to amplify symptoms for weather-sensitive people: those with hypertension often notice blood-pressure spikes, and readings below 1000 hPa combined with Kp ≥ 5 frequently bring headaches and fatigue. That is why the Bohuniya page shows both indicators side by side. Weather data from Open-Meteo (CC BY).

Aurora viewing window for Bohuniya tonight. Sunset is at 20:27 local time, sunrise tomorrow at 05:37. Moon phase — waning gibbous with 98% disk illumination. The Moon is close to full tonight, so moonlight will be strong and faint auroras will be harder to spot — wait for Kp ≥ 6 or pick a darker site..
