Solar Storm G3-G4 to Hit Earth Between June Four and Five

Published on June 06, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

The Sun has launched three plasma explosions directly toward our planet. These events, known as coronal mass ejections, could trigger a G3 or G4 level geomagnetic storm on June 4 and 5. Authorities warn of possible power outages, satellite failures, and problems with GPS systems and radios.

How to protect servers and critical equipment from a solar storm ⚡

For developers and system administrators, this storm represents a real risk to technological infrastructure. Geomagnetic fluctuations can induce stray currents in power grids and damage transformers. It is recommended to have UPS systems with charged batteries, disconnect sensitive equipment if the storm intensifies, and ensure offline backups. Low Earth orbit satellites are the most vulnerable.

GPS will leave you stranded: go back to using paper maps 🗺️

Just when you had memorized the route with Waze so you wouldn't get lost, the Sun decides to strike. Get ready to dust off those paper maps you keep in the glove compartment. If your GPS fails, it won't be the app's fault, but a star 150 million kilometers away. At least you'll have the perfect excuse to be late for work.
