When is the possibility of solar weather affecting terrestrial weather the highest?(1 point)

The possibility of solar weather affecting terrestrial weather is highest during periods of increased solar activity, such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). These events typically occur during the solar cycle's solar maximum phase, which happens approximately every 11 years. During this phase, the Sun's magnetic activity increases, leading to a greater frequency of solar storms that can interact with Earth's magnetic field, potentially having effects on atmospheric phenomena.
