On March 18th only a few tiny clouds scattered across a clear sky. The temperature was a comfortable 66 degrees, but wind gusts increased through the afternoon. I got a late start at 2:33 pm. The seeing was particularly bad this day, possibly the worst I've ever seen since moving to Williamsburg. It was hard to achieve good focus because the image on my laptop was so blurry. Consequently, most of my images were very poor quality.
Only one 6-panel mosaic came out reasonably well. It shows sunspot 2519 approaching the western limb with a nice prominence nearby and a couple of modest filaments to the sunspot's left.
