In a previous paper, we investigated the facular area around 31 decaying sunspots of varied size. The growth of facular area as a function of spot decay was marginally significant (r 2 = 0.1255, p = 0.05). Using new data, this paper examines the change in facular area surrounding large decaying sunspots some of which grew very rapidly. The data are from full-disk photometric images taken with CFDT2 (2.5″ pixels). For 10 sunspots, we find a statistically significant increase in facular area as a function of the spot decay rate with a regression coefficient, squared, of r 2 = 0.611 (p < 0.02).
