A fresh morning with mostly clear skies, occasional lumpy cloud, cool with a strong northerly wind.
The Sun's disc is threatening to become spotless - I was
just able to see the trailing spot of AR1039 in white light, and there was a faint patch of faculae, but CaK was needed to show it convincingly

Still just about there in Ha too

But there was nothing else of any significance on the solar disk.
Proms, however, were located at all four "diagonal quarters"
