I'm playing catch up with posts at present (life and work intervened). North Carolina typically has rather cloudy skies in Summer, and clouds have definitely interrupted observations. This post has images of the whole solar disk, as well as a close up of AR3058, which had the potential for X-Class flares (the most powerful flares the Sun produces). I've also included the image of a very large limb prominence.
The trials, tribulations and small triumphs of a Charlotte, NC astronomer imaging under Bortle 8/9 skies.
