Kp index

The Kp index, how disturbed Earth's magnetic field is, on a scale of 0 to 9. It is driven by the solar wind pushing on the magnetosphere, the magnetic bubble that shields the planet. On NOAA's scale 0 to 2 is quiet, 3 unsettled, 4 active, and 5 and above a geomagnetic storm, when aurorae reach further from the poles. A high Kp means an ACTIVE field, not a verdict on your day.
