Seeing still below average.  Solar activity at the beginning of the day was Very Low with no flare in the last two days, however, today we did see one C1.0 flare.  Total Active Region area for the Sun is at 430 millionths and total spot count went up from 5 to 7.  Did not see any prominences and the filament from a few days ago has deteriorated even more today.  The filament in the AR2683 and AR2682 area is still nice visible and hopefully will show up nice when the area moves to the far side.

Seeing was below average on October 4th.  Solar Activity remains Very Low with no flares in the last two days. We still have two regions AR2682 covering 120 millionths and AR2683 still growing and covering an area of 330 millionths.  Total sunspot count remains at 5.  Some filaments are still very nice defined, however the one filament near the meridian is deteriorating. Full disk images today as well as close ups of the mentioned regions.
