Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1477774 Internet is still up and running...no aurora's and we have only a bit of cloud coverage...no ringing in the ears...morning coffee was good and almost time for me to head in to work...I will watch way up here through the day just sayin nothin exciting up here in the north of the world Thanks for the update! The auroral oval has not lit up yet but when these sheets that are being peeled of the front of the magnetosphere snap back off the tail it will light up. This 50 second video is a great demonstration of that process.

(OP) User ID: 4888469 United States 01/22/2012 06:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What would you do if the Internet died? WASHINGTON — If a day without Wikipedia was a bother, think bigger. In this plugged-in world, we would barely be able to cope if the entire Internet went down in a city, state or country for a day or a week. Sure, we'd survive. People have done it. Countries have, as Egypt did last year during the anti-government protests. And most of civilization went along until the 1990s without the Internet. But now we're so intertwined socially, financially and industrially that suddenly going back to the 1980s would hit the world as hard as a natural disaster, experts say. No email, Twitter or Facebook. No buying online. No stock trades. No just-in-time industrial shipping. No real-time tracking of diseases. It's gotten so that not just the entire Internet but individual websites such as Google are considered critical infrastructure, experts said. "Nobody would die, but there would be a major hassle," said computer security expert Mikko Hypponen, chief research officer at F-Secure in Helsinki, Finland. If an Internet outage lasted more than a day or two, the financial hit would be huge, with mass unemployment, said Ken Mayland, a former chief bank economist and president of ClearView Economics. Eugene Spafford, director of Purdue University's Center for Education and Research in Information Assurance and Security, worries about bank runs and general panic. Psychologically, too, it could be wrenching. "I think it's easier to get off heroin," said Lisa Welter of New York City, who weaned herself for a month last year from just the social aspects of the Internet — she still paid bills online — and felt as if she was "living in a cave." "There would be a sense of loss: What would I do with my time?" said Kimberly Young, a psychologist who directs the Center for Internet Addiction and Recovery. On Wednesday, certain websites, most prominently Wikipedia, went dark to protest legislation in Congress that would crack down on pirated movies and TV shows. It was a one-day stunt. But it raises questions about our connectedness. It is possible that hackers, terrorists, accidents or even sunspots could take down the Internet and cause areas to become cut off and unreachable, said Spafford, one of the foremost experts on computer security. The U.S. and other developed nations have multiple and robust routing systems that make it unlikely large areas would be affected, but smaller countries could be vulnerable to nationwide outages, Hypponen said. The world only has to look back one year to Egypt to see what a sudden unplugging could spawn. read more.....

(OP) User ID: 4888469 United States 01/22/2012 07:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That is from when they took a reading earlier during a dip. If you look at this USAF Graph you see a time line. The green and yellow bubbles represent the 1hr predicted kp, and the small + sign is the 4 hr predicted kp. The large crosses are one for the i hr with a bubble under it for the curre1 hr and the other large cross with a small + under it is for the 4 hr ahead predicted. The blue bar is the USAF estimated kp for the time and you can see what is is by following it over to the verticle white dotted line that is the current time.Hope that makes sense.
