It's weird that the magnetic field looks like it is really being pushed, but the Kp is going down. Is this suppose to work this way?
 Quoting: Starry eyes


I don't think it is.. considering that the magnetic field is widening again.. further than it has been over any time the last 4 hours,

the proton density is at 2.9

SpaceWeather shows Kp is still high at 7.67, their Kp figure seems to have been the most accurate throughout the night..

Could someone please explain to me as I am still learning all this what the kp ratings mean please and thank you =)
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10506528


It's the scale they use to measure geomagnetic storm intensities. Take a look at the definitions below.

K index is shown on the second to last last column to your right.

Lot's of good info there.

The Kp Rating is an Planetary estimate of the amount of harmful UV Radiation as well as other Solar Particles that are able to penetrate the Earths' protective Atmospheres at any one time.

Loads for me:

"GEOMAGNETIC STORM: A strong geomagnetic storm is in progress as Earth's magnetic field reverberates from a CME strike on July 14th. At first the CME's impact seemed relatively weak, but conditions in the wake of the CME have become stormy. Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab say that satellites in geosynchronous orbit may have been directly exposed to solar wind plasma. Also, Northern Lights have appeared in the United States as far south as California, Utah, Missouri, Wisconsin, Iowa, Oregon, Illinois, Arkansas and Nebraska."

Over 1100nT totally reversed H (North) component of the geomagnetic field within a few minutes. For those of you that are not that familiar with the magnetometers, that is the last long black line along the 11:00 UT. line.

I agree. The 7.3 was predicted, 5 observed.

[link to www.swpc.noaa.gov] just dropped predicted to 6.3, still at 5 observed. I think that other site will follow suit soon since their source is NOAA.

Yes that was my second link, above. I trust that one too. That's why I thought the 7.3 that aaronnoraa711 quoted had to be wrong. both of my links above are usually pretty much in sync.
