This
is a view of the sun right now. If you squint you may see the sunspot
groups. Directly facing us is 2219 which has the capacity for C flares,
below right is 2216 a group thats quiet and likely to remain that way.
The lower group to the left is 2217. This group has been emitting low
level C flares and might do something for us yet . Above this and
further back towards the eastern rim is 2218. This group seem quiet as
well. Two new groups are rotating in to view and are yet to be numbered.
The one thing thats its not possible to see in my snap shot is a
coronal hole in the northern hemisphere thats about to have an influence
on the solar wind speed. I have seen 500kps+ predicted so hopefully
with some southerly Bz we might have a little bit of colour in the sky
over the coming nights.
