Today's panorama follows a period of low solar disk activity and several cloudy days. This image was captured through humid and hazy skies, hence the poor quality. New sunspats can be seen emerging on the bottom left of the image, and filamentary structures are visible in a number of places on the disk. The emerging spots currently have the potential for M-Class flares, so I will try to follow them as they track across the disk (weather permitting).
The trials, tribulations and small triumphs of a Charlotte, NC astronomer imaging under Bortle 8/9 skies.
