Sun: Wow 4 sunspots. But none of these sunspots poses a threat for strong solar flares.
Arietid meteor shower: One of the strongest meteor showers of the year is underway now. Don't get excited. It peaks in broad daylight. The annual Arietid meteor shower, caused by debris from Comet 96P/Machholz, sends 60 meteors per hour streaking across noon-blue sky on June 8th through 12th. To see it, you have to into be a radar. Amateur radio operators, this is a good time to try meteor burst communications. (spaceweather.com)
