Clear skies with average seeing.  Solar activity remains low with 2 C-class flares in the last two days.  Total Active Region Area for the hemisphere is going down today from 130 to 80 millionths.  AR2600 is getting close to the Western limb and remains an Hsx region on the McIntosh scale.  Total spot number goes down to 3.   The nice arched filament in the NE quadrant is approaching the meridian and still looks great.  Today full disk images and close ups of the mentioned regions.
