MM#009 Default Target



Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has grown to an intermediate level since the 
last message. Several >C5 flares are produced from NOAAs 
14204, 14199, 14195, and 14203. 14204 (alpha/H-type, N03E50), 
14199 (beta/C-type, N04E38), and NOAA 14195 (alpha/A-type, 
S18E07) produced a C9.3 flare (the largest in the period) at 
12:27 UT yesterday, a C5.4 at 14:24 UT yesterday, and a 
C6.6 flare at 00:06 UT today, respectively. Two ~C5 flares at 
00:26 UT and at 11:25 UT today were produced by 14203. 
This region has been the most productive and has increased 
in magnetic complexity to be classified as a beta/D-type. Today, 
the target shall switch to NOAA 14203 from NOAA 14197. 
Yesterday's target 14197 (beta-gamma/E-type, S17E23) only 
produced three low-C flares. Further C-class activity is expected, 
with an isolated low-M flare likely in the following 24 hours.

The position of NOAA 14203 on 27-Aug-2025 at 11:30 UT is:

N12W82 (920", 179")
