I went down to the observatory this AM and rolled the roof back to see what I could see. Sure glad I had those walls around me to keep most of the wind off. The seeing wasn't as bad as I thought it might be, although sometimes the image would blur so badly that I couldn't see any of the AR's. Then it would settle back down for a little while and then repeat. I managed to get a decent look in spite of everything. The AR1161-1162 area covers a considerable amount of solar territory--I estimate that AR1161 spans about 10 Earth diameters east to west. Active Region 1158 was still visible on the western limb, very foreshortened and surrounded by faculae. It's been a great week for solar observing. Even if you've been under cloudy skies (like I will be soon), a quick check of all the excellent images and sketches here on the Solar forum gets you up to speed. Thanks everyone!
