THE RELATIVE MONTHLY MEAN SUNSPOT NUMBER ON SEPTEMBER 2015 HAS MADE Wsep. = 78.1, THAT GIVES FOR 74 MONTHS (2015, MARCH) DEVELOPMENT CURRENT 24 CYCLES OF SOLAR ACTIVITY THE SMOOTHED MONTHLY MEAN SUNSPOT NUMBER W*feb. = 86.6 - new system; 51.96 - old system; W*march. = 82.7 - new system; 50.0 - old system; - On July 1, 2015 Centre in Brussels moved to a new system of cal- culation the relative number of sunspots and practically all of the values were replaced throughout the numbered series of Wolf numbers (see link). While there is addictive, I recalculated (0.6) to the old system, but only W*, and present below the new values for the minimum and maximum of 24 cycles SA. Almost all the work using smooth W* have to lead to a new system, if it remains.

ESTIMA- TED, WEEKLY AVERAGE VALUE OF THE RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBER IN THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM WAS Wn= 72+50/-55 (W old = 45+30/-34). ON THE VISIBLE SOLAR DISK 6 -1 SUNSPOT GROUPS, ONE BIG SIZE (AR12422, S20 L106) AFTER 27.09 AND LEFT OF THE WESTERN LIMB 4.10, REMAINING BIG, WERE CONSTANTLY OBSERVED. THE LOW AND THE MIDDLE LEVEL OF THE SUNSPOT-FORMING ACTIVITY IS EX- PECTED ON THE NEXT WEEK. AS ESTIMATED, THE MOST LIKELY WEEKLY AVERA- GE VALUE OF THE RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBER IN THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM FOR THE NEXT WEEK IS W = 040+10/-30. FLARE ACTIVITY WAS AT THE HIGH LEVEL AT 28.09 AND 2.10, MIDDLE - 29. 09 - 1.10 AND THE LOW -3.10, THERE WERE 8 SOLAR FILAMENT EJECTION OC- CURRENCES THROUGH THE PERIOD.
