Hi, everybody!
AR2805 is decaying but 2804 has produced more than 20 B-flares and continues to grow. It's nice to see the X-ray background levels at B1--some C-flares may be in the offing.....

I found it interesting that a spotless region of magnetism coming behind 2804 has a reversed polarity (mid-disk north). Is this a remnant of Cycle 24 ?? Hard to believe at this late date.

Hopefully we'll see some bigger flares in the next few days.
