Solar Update: Solar Activity increased somewhat with multiple C-Class flares taking place within the past 24 hours. The largest of these flares was a near M-Class flare (C9.5) which took place off the western limb.

Sunspot 1289 has rotated onto the western limb and out of direct earth view. Sunspot 1295 remains the largest of the visible earth facing groups and may produce an M-Class flare.
