Sun Today 17 June

[Umbraldot]

Sun splitting the sky for a change here. One of the new groups over the SE limb, AR2093 is bright in plage this morning. There is also a small bright spot of plage near the SW limb close to quite a large prominence hearth with a nearly detached plasma cloud. The two long filaments near the eastern limb are still obvious but have moved away from the limb a little from yesterday.

There's a new single pore trailing AR2087 and AR2093 has developed a small pore to the west.

White light count, 2 groups north and 4 south, R = 80

In H-alpha 9 prominence hearths, mostly small and 6 filaments on the disk.

Just had a look as well. Lots of proms on the western limb, with the centre one a magnificent branching shape, and great detail on the disk. There are also some filaments far south on the eastern side, below the two big ones. Nice prom showing up on the east as well.

Had a very quick look tea break, hope that big one is still there at 1 pm
