AR1045 is starting to come alive
The new sunspot group AR1045 is starting to grow quickly. Yesterday Feb 6 at 18:59 UTC, the spot erupted with a M2.97 solar flare. Later on Feb 7 at 2:34 UTC the same spot erupted with a M6.4 solar flare. This area is becoming quite active. These Solar flare reports were issued by Solar Terrestrial Dispatch
AR1043 and AR1044 are exiting off the western limb, yet yesterday I could not see the spots in white light, but they did show up on h-Alpha on my SM60.
