Anyone thinking of flying today check the KP

[Richk]

In my area the KP is 5 right now and that could mess up GPS

Mine says 4 but jumps to 6 in a couple of hrs. Wind speed/direction and kp are the first things I check in the mornings.

KP?

 

[Richk]

It's the interference caused by solar storms and anything above a 4 could mess with your GPS

UAV Forecast is what I use.

Not checked the Kp today. The weather is far too crappy for flying anyway

I also use UAV Forecast. It shows green across the board here today. KP has diminished from 6 to 4.
At 16:00, back to 6 though.

Do you ever come by downtown? I fly there after work quite often.

I live in Cypress, Tx and wonder if there are any informal groups that might meet up to trade information?
