*31 DAYS OF 100+ SUNSPOT NUMBER:*Solar Cycle 25 just hit another
milestone. Every day last month (31 days in a row), thesunspot number

100. Astronomer Senol Sanli of Bursa, Turkey, used data from NASA's
Solar Dynamics Observatory to display all of May's sunspots in a single

The last time this happened was in March 2014 when the sun also reeled
off 31 consecutive days of 100+ sunspot number. That was near the
maximum of Solar Cycle 24. Nine years later, Solar Cycle 25 is just
getting started, and it is shaping up to be much stronger than its
predecessor. Many months of "100+" may be in the offing.*Solar flare
