Well it is getting busy on the surface as well as outside of the limb.
Yesterday - I did see a very small spot in the NE QUADRANT, which has now developed into TWO SPOTS !! (AR2784-probably)...
Also - over the S.E. limb, much activity is occurring with the oncoming DOUBLE AREA of activity about to come into view.
This one certainly is likely to produce some well-nice activity and interest. It could be a previous AR returning...
SDO & STEREO images refer...
CLEAR SKIES hopefully
Terry

At 11:18z. in between about 80% cloud-cover (with fast moving clouds), I could clearly see the two new Sun-spots in the N.E. Quadrant, as
a dark pair - as seen through my Baadar-filmed spotting-scope and even when stopped-down, are as dark as the AR2883 in the south.
Will try and image them shortly...

Terry,
Look on the southeast limb in this Hinode image. A new AR appears to be just over the limb. It's probably the one you are seeing on the Stereo images.

Thank you James for the interesting link and yes it certainly is the oncoming region which also appears to be showing a largish spot and is also very active as it has just rotated into view in the S.E. at around 11:00z on Sunday.
This now shows that the whole Solar-disk is the most active in the various regions (north and south) in Cycle #25...
Cheers
Terry

Thanks Mark and Alfred and yes certainly is getting busier than our Picadilly Circus in London. (Well almost)..
Just hope the weather holds for everyone, even though I am relegated to WL viewing and hopefully some imaging, which i couldn't do today due to other important tasks..
Cheers
