Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a low level. The target regions NOAA 12993 and
12994 continued to decay further and were classified as beta/C-type
and beta-gamma/E-type sunspot groups, respectively, at the start of
the UT day. This pair of regions are now approaching the North West
limb, with only NOAA 12994 producing any flaring activity since the
last message (a C1.3 flare on 27-Apr-2022 at 03:59 UT). A couple of
higher magnitude flares were observed from other regions (a C7.7 on
27-Apr-2022 at 14:15 UT from NOAA 12996 being the largest), but the
target will remain with NOAA regions 12993/12994 due to their past
flaring history. Further C-class flares are expected in the next 24
hours, with a small chance of a low M-class flare.

The position of NOAA 12993/12994 on 27-Apr-2022 at 22:30 UT is:

N17W66 , ( 833", 307" )
