A major Solar Flare is in progress in region 720. X-Ray levels are X1.5 and I have the flare under optical observation at this time.

Looked even nicer optically which a bright disk surge and bright loops developing.

Here's a picture of #720 exploding.

An M8 and X2 explosions yesterday could bring us some good viewing up north tonight and tomorrow.

Here's a picture of sunspot group 720. It's roughly the width of Jupiter and growing.
