I just learned today that the magnetic poles are gonna swap in the 2040s, so that's my guess.

They're not swapping by 2040. Geomagnetic poles take an obscenely long time to swap; we're talkin' hundreds of thousands of years. What's gonna happen by 2040 is that Earth's geomagnetic "North" will line up with "true North".
