Solar activity has remained at very low levels with no visible sunspot groups existing on the Sun’s disk after the complete disintegration of AR2846 into plage. No significant flaring activity was recorded over the past 24 hours. The latest sunspot number (based on visual count and Wolf number calculation) is 0. 

Enhanced plages associated with all former sunspot groups, several short, and elongated filaments across the Sun’s disk mostly at the southern hemisphere, and few small quiescent prominences at the NW, NE, and SW limbs were distinctively captured in H-alpha imagery.

Space weather agencies* forecast very low solar activity to persist in the next few days with chances of solar flares up to B-class intensity. Close monitoring is being conducted by numerous space weather agencies for any significant development.

Equipment used are Skywatcher 120mm refractor telescope with Baader filter and unmodified Canon EOS 1D Mark IV DSLR camera for visible imagery. For H-alpha imagery, the equipment used are Lunt 60mm H-alpha solar telescope, and QHYCCD 290III mono camera; all mounted on Skywatcher EQ6 pro mount Pre-processing of visible solar images was performed in PIPP, stacking in Autostakkert, slight wavelet adjustments in Registax 6, and post-processing in Adobe Photoshop CC.
