On Tuesday January 06, 2009 a new solar cycle 24 sunspot group (S736) formed 
in the SW quadrant of the sun at S22W52. It was numbered as 11010 today by 
NOAA/SWPC.

A new solar cycle 24 forecast has been released by NOAA/SWPC. They are 
forecasting a SSN peak of 110 in late 2012.

My solar cycle 24 forecast made on February 1, 2008 is for a SSN peak of 105 
in October 2012.
