Posted (edited)

Unlike the previous 2 newest regions, AR 3701 is in the east, neighboring 3697.IMG_1593.jpeg.77714efa2c1356790f81b75bc3b2656b.jpegAt S04E33, it has grown from ~3 to 9 in the last 24 hours.

Benny - the left side of the sun is the east side and the right side is the west - look at the latest synoptic map and you will see you have the two reversed

AR3700 is at S04W35 (the right side of the sun)

AR3701 is at S04E32 (the LEFT side of the sun and left of AR3697)

@BasedBenny  @Justanerd is absolutely correct.  We also know it might seem a silly convention like RED for a negatively polarized region. But check out the synoptic map like I did a couple of years ago shaking my head at long-standing conventions. 

The synoptic map is here:
