Dear Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is low. Target region NOAA 13004 has
been relatively stable in terms of spot area and number of spots
since the last message, again remaining classed as a beta-delta/
D-type sunspot group. This region continued to be the source of
C-class flares since the last message, the largest of which was
a C4.1 on 8-May-2022 at 12:17 UT. NOAA 13006 again showed signs
of decay but remained flare quiet. The Max Millennium Observing
Plan #003 Major Flare Watch will now cease, although the target
remains on NOAA 13004. Further C-class flaring is expected over
the following 24-hour period, with a chance for another M-class
flare.

The position of NOAA 13004 on 8-May-2022 at 18:00 UT is:

S16W66 , ( 835", -240" )
