Several Raleigh Astronomy Club members supported the International Sun-Day events at the North of Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences.
At the start of the event (12 noon) the weather was not at all cooperative with almost 100% cloud cover. However holes in the clouds began to appear by 2pm and by 3pm we started to get some solar observing in. The sun was somewhat quite today without a lot of activity / sun spots. By around 3:30 we were able to start noticing a sun spot near top edge of the sun.
A big thanks to all the RAC members that assisted with the event.
We estimated that despite the less than ideal weather, we were able to share views of sun with approximately 150 visitors.
