Dear Collaborators,

The target region NOAA 13078 was the source of an M1.8 flare
(at 08/16/21:10 UT) plus numerous C-class flares in the past 24
hours. 13078 retains its beta-gamma-delta/D-type configuration
with slightly increasing in the sunspot area. The emerging sunspot
region very nearby 13078 has been numbered as NOAA 13083
(S24W33). 13078 continues to emerge new magnetic fluxes.
Further low M-class flares are expected with a chance of major
flares in the next few days.

The position of NOAA 13078 on August 17 at 07:30 UT is:

S23W22 (327", -464")
