To help explain the different kp-levels and geomagnetic activity, NOAA has a very good layout which will help you understand it alot more. The link is http://www.sec.noaa.gov/NOAAscales/. They also have a pretty good space weather page here: http://www.sec.noaa.gov/SWN/.

I am also a member of the Aurora Alerts Index which is pretty informative as well. There really aren't too many members, but during active periods people flood in pretty good. Some more of my favorite links are from Mike Hollingshead's "Extreme Instability". He has some very nice pictures. Here is his November 8, 2004 entry, his May 15, 2005 report, and also his December 14, 2006 shots.Very cool pictures. Another one of my favorites is Kevin McCarthy's North Pole Gallery
