Description

As always when something is going on the clouds show up.
I had three attempts at this animation and had to scrub the first hour as the cloud made it impossible to get a reasonable result.
That aside this MPEG4 is from 0124 until 0321UTC. 1hour and 57 minutes. 1124 am to 0121pm local.
All images with my Lunt 100DS and ZWO 432mm operating at F35.
It shows two very reasonable flares and a very nice show of surges from AR 3637 and 38.
The AR 3643 and AR3645 area is pretty active as well.
The other images are a general view around the sun today.
