Below is a look at sunspot region 3450 as it continues to turn into view in the southeast quadrant. The region was responsible for a number of minor C-Flares and one low level M-Flare on Thursday. AR 3450 appears to be in a growth phase and will be monitored as we head into Friday. Elsewhere, AR 3445 in the southwest quadrant continued to gradually decay, but is still producing occasional C-Flares. All other regions have been for the most part stable. No Earth directed eruptions were observed during the past 24 hours. The image below courtesy of the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) using the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) instrument.

A prolonged period of minor (G1) geomagnetic storming was observed on Tuesday thanks to an enhanced solar wind stream containing a long duration sector of southward Bz. This component has since returned to more neutral territory and storm conditions have ended for now. A gradual return to quieter levels is expected over the next 24-48 hours.
Solar activity so far on Tuesday has been at low levels with a number of minor C-Flares detected. Much of this activity was centered around AR 3445, now turning into the southwest quadrant. The region continues to evolve every day and still contains enough polarity mixing to remain a threat for at least moderate M-Flares. The other main area of interest, AR 3435, was fairly stable today, but will also remain a threat for an isolated M-Flare. New region 3447 grew quickly during the past 24 hours and will be monitored for additional development.
