Description

A look at the new system on the eastern limb, AR3590.
Plenty of cloud today as the rain last night kept the humidity way up.
I managed an animation of AR 3590 for 1 hour and 32 minutes. 0030 to 0202 UTC.
In the gaps I had a good look at all the activity on the disc and captured some to present here.
The interesting thing is the mass of prominences north of AR 3590 in the NNE quarter. They are very faint and I all most missed them.
I hope they stay long enough to make it to the limb. I made a capture of them and also one of the departing filament on the west limb.
