Space Weather

Geomagnetical activity:Unsettled - low activity
Current Kp-Index:2   (on a scale from 0-9);
Forecasted Kp-Index:2.33   maximum within the next 4 hours
Your geomagnetic latitude is 40.1°. Aurora visiblity warnings are given for you only if Kp index is above 9.

Sunspots
Current SESC Sunspot Number 39 (very low)
Maximum within last 31 days:17.01.2012 (152)
Maximum within last 365 days:09.11.2011 (220)
Last day with higher Sunspot number:02.02.2012 (85)

An overview on the most important factors related to space weather and aurora. The current auroral activity is influenced with some days of delay to the solar coronal activity. The corona reveals the mass flow from the Sun outwards through our solar system, and strong mass ejections disturb Earth's magnetic field, and hence produce stronger aurorae.
