Clear skies with relative good seeing conditions.  AR2780, which formed yesterday, is decaying already and I did not see any spots during my session in WL.  A new area has shown up at the South Eastern limb and was named this morning as AR2781.  It is nicely visible in all three wavelengths and shows three spots.   Also its size seems to be larger than any of the recent areas as they started their way to the Western limb.  We are now also seeing a few C-Class flares, rather than the B-class flares.  Looking forward to what tomorrow will bring.
