There are 10 Regions visible on the Sun today, although 3 Regions have yet to be named.
Northern Region 2929 has blossomed into an interesting array of medium sized spots with a large area of umbra that covers the main spots and the otherwise vacant area between the spots.
The spots in nearby Region 2930 have become much larger and darker in the last 24 hours.
Region 2931 is largely unchanged from yesterday except that it is approaching the Western Limb.
New Region 2932 is on the North-Eastern Limb and features one small spot and a large area of faculae.
On the South-Eastern Limb, there is also faculae, but I could not see any spots. There are two small, lonely spots, which I expect to be named as Regions in the South-Eastern Quarter.
Regions 2924, 25 & 27 are visible in the South. The surviving spot from 2924 is very close to the Western Limb. I could not see anything of Region 2928.
