Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has decreased to a moderate level. Target NOAA
13098 has now fully rotated over the North West limb, but not
before producing a final M2.6 flare on 17-Sep-2022 at 20:32 UT.
NOAA 13102 is the most magnetically complex region on the disk,
being classified as a beta/E-type sunspot group. This region
has produced several C-class flares, including the largest of
the period with a C3.7 on 18-Sep-2022 at 16:08 UT. The MM#003
Major Flare Watch now comes to an end and the target switches
to NOAA 13102. Further C-class flares are expected in the
following 24-hour period.

The position of NOAA 13102 on 18-Sep-2022 at 18:30 UT is:

S27E01 , ( -17", -538" )
