Low sensitivity (low latitudes)
Kp is a planetary index — the same globally. Local impact depends on geomagnetic latitude: the higher it is, the more noticeable the storm.

▸About magnetic storms in Logrono
Magnetic storm in Logrono today: planetary Kp = 0.3 (G0). Over the last 7 days the maximum Kp above Logrono reached 4.7 (G0); storm days (G1+) this week: 0.
Logrono sits at geomagnetic latitude 45.0°. The nearest magnetic observatory continuously recording the field is Lviv, 2166 km away. Population 151,164.
Magnetic storms and health of Logrono residents: at Kp ≥ 5 weather-sensitive people may experience pressure swings, headaches, sleep issues. Especially pensioners and people with hypertension should watch the forecast. During a storm — hydrate more, avoid alcohol and strong coffee, avoid intense physical load.
Technical consequences for Logrono at G3+: GPS, HF radio and precise positioning systems may glitch. Drivers on long routes should watch the forecast for the next 24–72 hours. Data source: NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center, refreshed every 10 minutes.
Over Logrono during the last 24 hours. Kp reached a maximum of 3.3 around 02:00 local time and dipped to 1.0. The planetary trend over the past 6 hours is falling — the magnetosphere near Logrono is in the recovery phase. So far this month the planet has logged no G1+ storm days with a G1 or stronger geomagnetic storm.
Aurora visibility threshold for Logrono. At a geomagnetic latitude of 45.0°, the minimum Kp giving a realistic chance of visible auroras above Logrono is about Kp ≥ 8. The current equatorial Dst index is 0 nT — the magnetosphere is in a quiet phase. Dst complements Kp by showing how long and how deep a storm's main phase has been — useful context when checking whether auroras are likely tonight.
Weather and atmospheric pressure in Logrono right now. Temperature +13.5°C, atmospheric pressure 726.4 mm Hg (968.4 hPa), cloud cover 100%, humidity 98%, wind 16.2 km/h. During G1+ geomagnetic storms, swings in atmospheric pressure tend to amplify symptoms for weather-sensitive people: those with hypertension often notice blood-pressure spikes, and readings below 1000 hPa combined with Kp ≥ 5 frequently bring headaches and fatigue. That is why the Logrono page shows both indicators side by side. Weather data from Open-Meteo (CC BY).
Aurora viewing window for Logrono tonight. Sunset is at 20:11 local time, sunrise tomorrow at 06:01. Moon phase — waning gibbous with 98% disk illumination. Heavy cloud cover lowers the chance of seeing auroras even during a strong storm — it may be worth waiting for the next clear night..
