Image Reports
At a time where not much is happening on the visible solar surface, it is a good choice to see what is gong on with coronal holes.
The above image from 7 March shows an image taken from
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory that is monitoring the structure of the sun, showing a coronal hole which stretches more than 700,000 km from
