    They cause magnetic storms. A magnetic storm is a fleeting disturbance of the Earth's magnetosphere. A magnetic storm is caused by a solar wind shock wave associated with solar coronal mass ejections, coronal holes, or solar flares. It typically strikes the Earth's magnetic field 24 to 36 hours after the event.
