Wet during the morning & early afternoon with a clearance in late afternoon. Limited time & interference from residual cloud prevented me from getting a full set of videos. Evening commitments prevented me from processing the videos till this morning.
CaK full disk image:
2010 Mar 24, 1624 UT. Coronado PST CaK @ f/10, DMK21.
Ha disk & proms composite:
2010 Mar 24, 1711 UT. Solarscope 60 @ f/5, DMK41.
The highlight of the day's activity is the new sunspot group AR1057 which was imaged in white light & CaK:
2010 Mar 24, 1636 UT. 80mm @ f/24, Baader solar film (ND5.0), DMK21
2010 Mar 24, 1646 UT. 60mm @ f/25, Lunt B1200 CaK diagonal, DMK21
There were numerous prominences including a very interesting one on the west limb, but I was unable to obtain images of them, or a detailed image of the AR in Ha.
Transparency fair, some high cloud, much interference from drifting low cloud. Seeing moderate, some "jet stream" blurring but fairly steady. Temp +9C, wind SW force 2-3.
