It looks like it flat-lined at 6?--but I thought we were in Kp 5? Edit: Nevermind, looks like from some charts, we made it to KP 6. [/quote] The observed estimate is now Kp 6. [/quote] Can you post that (those ) links ??? TIA [/quote] All I'm seeing is 5s http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/k-index.html [/quote] http://www.theusner.eu/terra/aurora/kp.php Is this credible? I do realize this is a European website..I was looking at a world-wide scale. [/quote] They use data from observatories all over the world, then present the average, so yes it makes sense it makes that one observatory may have a slightly high reading than another. :hf: I'm going to have to work on how I present my posts, I don't mean any harm really, just want to see what you are seeing. [/quote] Wingkp is the average, it just updates quicker than the pages you linked :) [/quote] Some other kp observatories: http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/k-index.html http://flux.phys.uit.no/Kindice/ [/quote]

An update as to the arrival time of this CME will be added once all data has been reviewed.
The X9.3 flare is the 14th largest X flare ever recorded!
On September 4th we had 7 M flares from fast growing sunspot 2673, with at least 1 large dense Earth directed CME. This CME will arrive late in the day on Wednesday September 6th.
There is now a 25% chance for X flares over the next 24hrs & 71% chance for M flares
We have a Long Duration M2.4 Solar Flare starting

There was a full halo CME observed with this solar flare. The associated CME is Earth Directed. See discussion on the last page for all updates!
