Short summary
Solar storms are natural phenomena that affect technologies on which our societies are highly dependent. The understanding of solar storms and the capability to anticipate their effects on our technologies is of main interest to shield our societies. In this work we present a semi-empirical approach to increase our understanding of solar storms when they hit our planet. Additionally, we also preset a possible pathway to forecast the transits of solar storms by our planet's orbit.
