SolarKIndexStatus Structure

Derived from https://services.swpc.noaa.gov/json/planetary_k_index_1m.json.
It contains the effects of the sun on the magnetosphere of the last few hours and the predictions for the coming hours.
The K-index, and by extension the Planetary K-index, are used to characterize the magnitude of geomagnetic storms.
Kp is an excellent indicator of disturbances in the Earth's magnetic field and is used by the American Space Weather Prediction Center (SPWC)
to decide whether geomagnetic alerts and warnings need to be issued for users who are affected by these disturbances.
GPS Satellites can be affected by these disturbances, so it is important to monitor the Kp index.
