Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a low level. Target region NOAA 13079 has developed some
intermediate spots since the last message, remaining classified as a beta/D-type
sunspot group. This region produced four C-class events since the last message,
including the largest magnitude flare of the period (a C5.3 on 14-Aug-2022 at
13:55 UT). Newly numbered region NOAA 13081 (also classified as a beta/D-type
sunspot group) was the other source of C-class flares in the period, with the
largest being a C4.4 on 13-Aug-2022 at 22:59 UT. However, the target remains
on NOAA 13079 due to its extensive flare history. Additional C-class
activity is
expected in the next 24 hours, with a chance for a low M-class flare.

The position of NOAA 13079 on 14-Aug-2022 at 15:30 UT is:

S11W34 , ( 521" , -269" )
