Kp Index Literally “Off The Chart”
2004 11 08

by Mitch Battros – ECTV

Geomagnetic storm “in progress” and so powerful, it is registering “off the chart”. I have only witnessed this twice before. I expect the FAA to issue a pilot and flight warning due to harmful radiation. Watch for satellite and power grid interference or outage.

Equation:

Sunspots => Solar Flares => Magnetic Field Shift => Shifting Ocean and Jet Stream Currents => Extreme Weather and Human Disruption (mitch battros)

Extreme Weather on the way. Here is a sample of what I expect. This news article was just released hours ago. Steady hail fell for at least 30 minutes, inflicting considerable damage on the 8-hectare vineyard. Full Story

What is the Kp Index? It measures and notifies of geomagnetic interference i.e. geomagnetic storms due to charged particles emitted from the Sun. This usually occurs as the result of solar flares, cme’s (coronal mass ejections) and coronal holes.

Geomagnetic disturbances can be monitored by ground-based magnetic observatories recording the three magnetic field components. The global Kp index is obtained as the mean value of the disturbance levels in the two horizontal field components, observed at 13 selected, subauroral stations . The name Kp originates from "planetarische Kennziffer" ( = planetary index).

The following definition of K variations has been given by Siebert (1971):

K variations are all irregular disturbances of the geomagnetic field caused by solar particle radiation within the 3-h interval concerned. All other regular and irregular disturbances are non K variations. Geomagnetic activity is the occurrence of K variations.
