These storms are relentless. Sigh. I was able to get a little window this late morning but could only get a bit of data before the rain came and shut it down for the day. It's amazing that when you want just 1 hour of uninterrupted sky time, you get 30 seconds here and there, once a week it seems. So much for "sunny Florida." Anyhow, interesting filaprom still on the south western limb, a new AR 2804 is forming in front of 2803, there's a small sunspot that is a bit larger than a pore and trying to develop a penumbra and umbra perhaps. Lots of neat activity going on in the plages areas in each active region.

I'm sorry about the bad weather though, winter should be your best time to observe
