Wait don’t commercial airlines all have capability to be manually flown?
Yeah....we got the best bent wire.

That is possibly the most disturbing gif that I’ve ever seen.
If the crack in that island slips, we're gonna be in a world of hurt. If I lived on the eastern seaboard, I wouldn't be watching any other news right now.
It looks like the damage is done already.If you knew where I lived you would understand my watching this.
Well, if you created a profile, it wouldn't be a mystery.
I move so much it is not worth the time.
Try again. My mistake. I was looking at the G4 rating instead. The Kp index is on the left of the chart. kp4 doesn’t mean much.
On the Space Weather Now page, almost everything is a clickable link.
Under the top image of the sun in green is a label of Alerts/Bulletins. Click on the word Alerts and it will take you to a page with more links labeled Space Weather alerts, which is here....
http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/index.html
Part way down is a category labeled K-indices chart. Click on that an it takes you to this page......
http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/alerts/k-index.html
Also the top box of NOAA Scales Activity has a link to Geomagnetic Storms. Click on that and it will give you more information, the scale and grading of it. K4 is a doozy. Here’s a link to that page as well.

The Boulder K-index is the real-time proxy for the Planetary K (Kp) values that define the Geomagnetic Storm (G-scale) on the NOAA Space Weather Scales.
Category G 1 = Descriptor Minor = (Kp = 5)
Am I reading the wrong value? Looks like K4 is below the scale of notice.
You’re right. I misread the G4 index for the k 4 index.
I had posted something else wrong in post 131 and thought I got it all corrected but obviously missed that.
I should know better than to try to function that early in the morning.....
On the Canary Island Volcano subject
At least the doomsday day one (the large landslide) that we've seen discussed, etc.
If it is, I'm dead.
I am dead too no ocean front property off a mountain just dead.I wonder if the OK quakes are the new madrid? Gotta be huh?
My sense is that they’re seperate from the New Madrid fault...but, of course...I don’t know that either.
