“anyone with knowledge about K index? Significance?”

From https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/planetary-k-index

“The K-index, and by extension the Planetary K-index, are used to characterize the magnitude of geomagnetic storms. Kp is an excellent indicator of disturbances in the Earth’s magnetic field and is used by SWPC to decide whether geomagnetic alerts and warnings need to be issued for users who are affected by these disturbances.

The principal users affected by geomagnetic storms are the electrical power grid, spacecraft operations, users of radio signals that reflect off of or pass through the ionosphere, and observers of the aurora.”

What your seeing in the graph is a very weak solar wind. No geomagnetic storm activity.

A lot of good space weather news here:

Well personally Larry I hope that K-index chart means that the whole frikking vile deep state got sucked into a black hole all at once.

Maybe tomorrow we will all wake up and there will be a Qpost in our 8Kun stockings, hung with care, that says two words, “Suicide weekend.”

Which we all know is a cover for Gitmo is now full.
