I did not expect it, but we had clear skies.  We seem to have a new region, which has not been named yet.  Its in the NW quadrant and I’ve been following the plage in my close ups since August 11th.  Late yesterday it produced a B-class flare, and today already a number of A-class flares, of which the largest so far was an A3 flare.  The two areas in the Southern hemisphere can still be seen nicely in Ha and CaK.  It also looks like another new region is arriving at the SE limb.  I can see two spots in the CaK closeup. So we’ll see what tomorrow brings.
