We got some much needed rain but the seeing is still below average this morning.  We have three active regions, AR2612, 14 and 15 and the Solar Activity is Medium.  We had 4 C-class flares in the last two days in AR2615 and on the 29th, the same region produced two M1-class flares. However, it has been since July 23rd since we’ve had an R2 alert (Flare > M5). Total Active Region Area is 230 millionths and the spot count has increased dramatically to 45 mainly contributed to AR2612.   Today full disk images as well as close ups of the mentioned regions.
