Update #2: 1:50pm Eastern Time
SPACEWEATHER SENSITIVITY STATEMENT: Here is what we have now- current coronal hole stream/geomagnetic instability, electrons rising near earth, high limb activity and eruptive potential. Headaches, heart attacks, seizures, strokes, and more have been associated by some with significant space weather events. See below, the electron flux – these levels are not high for an official storm, but the rapid rise is far faster than normal, even during event that hit storm levels.

Megaspot is still on the limb and too far off to be properly diagnosed magnetically… sort of. We can see a high degree of complexity and there already appears to be significant complexion to a degree where delta spots are almost certain to exist. For more on some classifications beyond the magnetics, google: sunspot Zurich class.
