>NEW SUNSPOT:  A  "new-cycle" sunspot belonging to Solar Cycle 24 is
>emerging near the sun's northeastern limb. This is the third time in
>as many weeks that a new-cycle sunspot has interrupted the year's
>remarkable run of blank suns.  The accelerating pace of new-cycle
>sunspot production is an encouraging sign that, while solar activity
>remains very low, the sunspot cycle is unfolding more or less
>normally.  We are not stuck in a permanent solar minimum.  Readers
>with solar telescopes should train them on the sun this weekend to
>observe sunspot genesis in action.
>
>AURORA WATCH:  Sky watchers from Alaska to Scandinavia should be
>alert for auroras tonight.  A solar wind stream is buffeting Earth's
>magnetic field and causing high-latitude geomagnetic storms.
