A breakthrough study from the University of New Hampshire reveals that in the hours and days following a solar storm, parts of North America can experience sharp changes in weather, such as declines in precipitation, with more powerful storms causing more dramatic shifts. However, the exact mechanism behind these effects remains unexplained.
For decades, scientists have searched for a clear link between the Sun’s explosive storms and the weather that occurs on Earth. A breakthrough study from the University of New Hampshire reveals that in the hours and days following a solar storm, parts of North America can see sharp changes in the weather — such as declines in precipitation — and the more powerful the storm, the more dramatic the shift. However, the exact mechanism behind the effects is still waiting for an explanation.
