We now officially have solar cycle 24 sunspot group #11040 located near
N28E59, with a beta magnetic signature capable of producing very small 
B
class solar flares and an isolated small C class solar flare.

The solar flux index values are 79.2 78.1 76.3 and the sunspot number 
15.

Solar cycle 24 sunspot group #11039 has set around the western limb of 
the
Sun. Old solar cycle 24 sunspot group #11038 has risen around the 
eastern
limb of the Sun. At the moment it appears to contain a spot or two but 
is
difficult to tell for sure at the moment. If so and it survives then
NOAA/SWPC will re-number it #11040.

The solar flux index values are 69.2 76.8 75.1 and the sunspot number 
13.

Updated 2300 UTC

NOAA/SWPC says that sunspot group #11038 is a spotless plage but I see 
one
lone spot and I suspect that it will produce new spots in days to come. 
SIDC
has assigned it Catania #35.

The solar flux index values are 77.8 77.3 76.1 and the sunspot number 
00,
ending an 11 day period with visible sunspots.
