The 2 small flares on the NEE limb of the solar surface have evolved into 2 very active regions and named AR12627 and AR12628. Meanwhile, AR12625 and AR12626 remain similar to the previous day as huge patches of plages with a few scattered flares.
During the 5 hour-observation session, both AR12627 and AR12628 show active eruptions, throwing large amount of material into the corona. These eruptions continue when observation ended shortly before 5 pm. Images are 800x800 crops from original.
