Earth.
Space weather, earthquakes, sea level — and your local sky.
Earth sits inside the Sun's atmosphere and on top of a restless crust. This page combines the live geomagnetic Kp index and solar wind from NOAA SWPC, recent earthquakes from the USGS, global mean sea level from NASA satellite altimetry, and your local weather from Open-Meteo — so the planet's current state fits on one screen.

What this means
Global geomagnetic disturbance, 0–9. Green <4 quiet, yellow 4 unsettled, orange 5–6 storm (G1–G2), red ≥7 strong storm. Bars = last 24h in 3-hour bins.

What this means
Solar-wind magnetic field at L1. Southward Bz favors magnetic reconnection and stronger coupling to Earth's field; northward Bz generally reduces this coupling. Bt is total field strength.

Density
— p/cm³
What this means
Solar wind streams from the Sun at several hundred km/s. Fast streams can originate in coronal holes, but speed alone does not identify the source. Abrupt changes can indicate a shock; geomagnetic effects also depend on magnetic-field strength and orientation.

What this means
Reference values for Earth's main field generated by the molten outer core. Per NOAA/BGS WMM 2025, the north magnetic pole was estimated in the WMM2025 reference description to drift about 36 km/yr toward Siberia — a marked slowdown from the ~55 km/yr peak in the 2000s — while the south pole drifts ~9 km/yr.

What this means
Reported magnitudes may use different scales. A unit increase corresponds to roughly 32× more energy; damage also depends on depth, distance, local ground and building vulnerability. USGS coverage varies by region and magnitude. 🌊 marks the feed’s tsunami flag, not a confirmed tsunami or warning.

What this means
Global mean sea level increased by 0.8 mm during 2025, compared with 5.9 mm during 2024. NASA’s long-term expected rise of about 4.4 mm per year is not the observed 2025 increase. La Niña-related storage of water on land temporarily reduced the annual rise. The previous cumulative figure was removed because its exact baseline and endpoint were not substantiated. Sea level rises through thermal expansion and land-ice melt; contributions vary by year. Ice-sheet values are GRACE / GRACE-FO mean mass changes over 2002–2025. Arctic ice is the annual minimum daily extent, not September’s monthly mean. NOAA reports record-high upper-ocean heat content in 2025; no unsupported depth-independent heat-uptake rate is assigned.
