Six was open North America wide yesterday. The FT8 waterfall at 50.313 was packed. There was a fair bit of SSB activity from 50.125 to 50.400 and I spotted about a half dozen CW beacons between 50.000 and 50.080.. I also tuned around the FM part of the band, but heard nothing there.

Today... Not so much
