<abstract>
<p>Researchers are intensively working to understand the phenomena that remain inadequately explained in connection with solar eclipses, including wind fluctuations, gravity waves, and oscillations in the Foucault pendulum. Despite the numerous theories that have been put up to elucidate these changes, substantial evidence remains necessary to substantiate any of them. Studies indicate that these alterations transpire more frequently at the core of the shadow and are observable throughout all atmospheric strata. Nevertheless, no research has concentrated on thoroughly examining the complete lunar umbra cone, encompassing the influence of the moon&amp;rsquo;s wake phenomena. The lunar umbra cone is a common structure at both ends. This work highlights the parallels between changes in wind and gravity waves during solar eclipses and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) lines. Building on our analysis, we propose a novel concept that offers a more cohesive and effective explanation of these phenomena during eclipses. This explanation is based on the formation of the magnetic vortex generated by the IMF lines extending from behind the moon to the Earth.</p>
