tniickck Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 3380 is coming in like 1.5 days, it looks quite big on farside maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurizio Marsigli Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Where is 3410? I think a Plage without spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very small spots , see here https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/en/solar-activity/sunspot-regions.html#3410 Update 13:20 UTC - Yep, now shown as Plage ! Further update 16:50 UTC - now shown as Alpha spot again. Looking at fields in that area I do not expect much activity.

It is worth comparing with the WSO photospheric field maps. I have cropped out the region for Carrington longitudes 60 to 180. Hopefully you can see that the large area on the farside map actually comprises multiple individual fields. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamateur 1953 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Thanks for that @3gMike I was recently misled in just such a manner! I don’t know if they were simply plage areas in the northern hemisphere, or what. Disappointed not to see loops arriving however! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tniickck Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 3386/3387 is coming, i see a spot on the limb has the background flux risen? or is it a long flare keeping at around c1.25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that was a long flare. Probably will drop back into high B level soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks sizeable; also looks pretty strong from the color in the m-gram despite being so close to the limb, but that's not exactly too reliable. Will be interesting to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see. I agree, but negative fields are looking relatively weak for the next half-rotation and farside image does not look particularly promising. Also looks fairly quite on STEREO Ahead. But of course, I would love to be proved wrong ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the spot has just barely rotated into full view now, and it doesn't look as big as I first thought after all, but we'll see.

tniickck Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 looks complex, at least 2 umbras i would say that it is beta-gamma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
