Heya,
Rained all morning. Sunny Florida! But around 2pm the weather was nice and the seeing was unreal. Seeing was camping on 3/5 and would hit 5/5 significantly often. I find that post-storm seeing is always better than pre-storm. I don't know why. But I always seem to gather superb seeing after a storm rolls through. This is rated based on the stability of the spicules on the limb. Not much to image, large feature wise. A few small prominences, no significant active regions, but a wee filament was noted and the main event for me today was the spicules fields near the limb in high resolution. Always something to see in HA with enough resolution.
B&W:

Setup:
Celestron 150mm F8 Refractor
Daystar 150mm ERF
ST80 (masked to 60mm) for full disc mosaic
Daystar Quark Chromosphere
PST etalon

Very best,
