      My favorite is https://solarham.net/

      Unfortunately, I have no idea how to understand what any of it means. But it’s pretty much all the raw data you could want on solar activity.

        Wow, that is a lot of… stuff I don’t understand. Very cool though. Neat to have it all in one place.

      Thanks for sharing! As I was reading this article I read thinking how cool a site, exactly like you posted, would be.

    It would be nice if this article included a map, NOAA didn’t have anything on it
