Here are today’s solar images taken from Al Sadeem Observatory, September 25, 2018.

The sky was clear with light to moderate air turbulence making the seeing and transparency average at the time these images were taken.

The Sun still exhibits no visible sunspot groups as very low solar activity has persisted over the past 24 hours. No significant flaring activity was recorded. The latest sunspot number (based on visual count and Wolf number calculation) is 0.  Other solar features observed were several huge eruptive hedgerow prominences at the limbs and a large filament at the Sun’s northern hemisphere as distinctively captured in H-alpha imagery.

Space weather agencies* forecast solar activity to remain at very low levels with chances of weak X-ray fluxes or flares ranging up to B-class intensity. Close monitoring is being conducted by numerous space weather agencies for any significant development.
