Clouds and areas of clear skies. (mostly cloudy here ), so made only a full disk image.  Today’s Sun has the lowest active region and sunspot area as I remember.  Sun spot area has reduced from 510 yesterday, to 370 millionth  today, although I must say the Sun looks beautiful with a large number of filaments.  We’ve had 14 flares over the previous 24 hour period.  AR2282 which is still pretty new, also looks nice and it is beginning to gain in size.   Maybe something will develop here.
