Dear Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is low. The target region NOAA 13068
initially decayed but then underwent some spot growth to become
classified as a beta/E-type sunspot group. This region continued
producing B-class activity since the last message. However, the
largest event of the period was a C9.3 flare on 31-Jul-2022 at
22:41 UT that was produced by a new region beyond the North East
limb. This limb location becomes the new target. Further C-class
activity is probable over the following 24-hour period, with a
chance for a low M-class flare because the C9.3 event was likely
a larger magnitude event diminished by footpoint occultation.

The approximate position of this region on 1-Aug-2022 at 12:30 UT is:

N15E90 , ( -913", 243" )
