Activity in past Junes

Saint-Pierre needs Kp 6 for the average oval edge to sit overhead. 29 of the 900 June days from 1996 to 2025 (3%) reached it in the GFZ Potsdam record, 7th of 12 months; storm days with Kp 5 or more made up 8%. Saint-Pierre sits at 55.5 degrees geomagnetic. By SWPC's rule the average oval edge is overhead at Kp 6, and aurora is usually visible on the northern horizon at G1 (Kp 5) or less.
