Another beautiful day with clear and perfect skies. AR2759 has increased to 30 millionths but looks a little more compact.  Today full disk images as well as close ups of AR2759 in the three wavelengths and the prominence in the SE in Ha.

A Short Summary of CR2228

Carrington Rotation CR2228 covered the time period from 2020-03-01 0126 UT – 2020-03-28 0857 UT.

For two days on March 9th and the 10th, the rotation did bring a new active region AR2758. On March 9th as an Hrx, and 10th as a Cro area, however, its size did not exceed 20 millionths.  I did not have the time to keep up with the Reverse Polarized Areas during this rotation, but will catch up for the next summary with a new reverse polarized area report. On March 28rd the current spotless streak stands at 18 spotless days.   Overall Solar Activity remained Very Low and the rotation increased the spotless days count since solar maximum to 716 days. Finally, during the period SWPC reported three A-class, one B class and no C-class flares.
