A bit of sunspot activity lately, as long as the green line doesn't go above the dotted line we are OK. If it does then put your cell phones in a lead box.
Sun is acting up

there is research suggesting the poles will flip at different times, north in August and south a few months later
DiSEqC motor setup
Hi All, I'm about to venture into setup my first DiSEqC motor with an 80cm dish ^_^, I'm aware there's already some guides on the site and I will be reading as much as I can. I purchased two second hand technomate motors, mainly because the first one didn't come with all the parts. Both...

It has been suggested before there could be more than two poles.
Sun may have Four Magnetic Poles
The sun may be entering a period of reduced activity that could result in lower temperatures on Earth, according to Japanese researchers. Officials of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan and the Riken research foundation said on April 19 that the activity of sunspots appeared to...

The sun might be composed of two independent bodies working as one, unknown to the lower intelligence living on this satellite.
One more visit by the Parker Probe this year, mid November.

NASA's Parker Solar Probe makes 1st-of-its-kind observation within a coronal mass ejection
The sun-kissing spacecraft detected some turbulence, and scientists are excited about it.

The outer layers of the sun’s atmosphere are a blistering million degrees hotter than its surface. The hidden culprit? Magnetic activity.
This planet dodged a bullet.

Perhaps not so lucky in a fortnights time.
Sun unleashes massive X8.7 solar flare, biggest of current cycle, from super-active monster sunspot (video)
But those of us hoping for a repeat of the widespread auroras that lit up the skies worldwide on May 10 could be disappointed.

Doom and gloom forecast.
Northern Lights expected soon as Sun drives stormy space weather
Another spectacular light show could come within two weeks as Sun storms reach 11-year high.

You must have been reading a different article than the one you linked to.
Not if you connect the first part of the text (a return of the sunspot area at the end of May) to the last (a potential Carrington-level event)
The link
is virtually throwaway.
AR3664 and the replacements are nothing special, it is their positioning in relation to the earth that have repercussions.
AR3695 is changing rapidly.
There has been a major solar flare overnight (X2.9), possibly from AR3686 to the east, so just on the edge.
And AR3664 is back Wednesday morning, already visible despite being still out of direct view.
