You can see the daily Sunspot numbers at www.spaceweather.com.

December 6: 0

December 7: 0

December 8: 0

December 9: 0

The pages for December 10-14 are temporarily throwing an error message, but I believe that they were zero each day.

December 15: 0

In fact, there have been more than 250 days this year on which the sunspot number has been zero. This has been an eerily quiet year.

Sunspot maximum and sunspot minimum are the points in time (roughly 6 years apart) when the sun is producing the most, or the least sunspots. In the past this has been measured both by sunspot area and sunspot count and is directly tied to the solar magnetic cycle.

Do solar eruptions have a pattern?

Yes. There is a cycle about 11 years long from the "Solar Minimum" to the "Solar Maximum" to the "Solar Minimum" again. During the minimums, there are few sunspots and not many big flares and eruptions. In 2008, for example, there were 300 days with ZERO sunspots. Today (January 28, 2009) the sunspot number is 11, but for the last week it has been 0. In 5 years or so, we expect the Sun to be very speckled, with sunspot numbers of 300 or more.
