Sunspot regions today 24-3-2021

Region / Number of sunspots / Class

2812 1 HSX

2810 without spots

SDO doesn't agree with those figures though ???

Thanks everyone and hopefully will see your images whenever you can Nigella and James

Hi Rainer, https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/en/solar-activity.html is the website I've been using for a while (along with many others), where
the web-linked one shown above, was and still is showing the inclusion of AR2806 with its' 7-spots. I suspect someone there has accidentally included this for whatever reason as the current SDO image at around 2300hrs/24-3-2021 is only showing a total of 4 (or so) spots with AR2811/2812.

I tried checking backwards before 8-3-2021 with my records when AR2806 was around, suggests to me that 2806 is being recorded as a possible return-visit, but certainly not with as many as 7-spots now for itself...

Any other comments welcome.

Within that web-link, where within the "Sunspot Regions" panel further information as "Class Magn. & Spot" of - the question-mark can explain more.
How accurate these two items are:- may or may not be accurate, so I don't tend to utilise those...
SDO is usually very up-to-date (within 30+ minutes of a required-datum and shows enough of what is happening as far as I am concerned...

Rainer I trust that may answer your question ?

Regards
Terry

https://hinode.msfc.nasa.gov/data_archive.html & https://www.lmsal.com/heksearch/ may well provide more intense-data about what is occurring at present and previously on our Sun...

Cheers & Enjoy getting your head around the websites... !!!

See if Rainer can work his magic...

Thanks Mark, Maurits and Alexandra.

That AR2806 overlap-error has now been deleted and 2811 appears to be degrading at mid-day today.

Cheers
Terry
