Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has increased significantly since the last message due
to NOAA 13380 doubling in size and increasing in complexity. It is now
classified as a beta-delta region and has produced six M-class flares
today including an M3.6 at 06:28 UT. At this time we are implementing
a Major Flare Watch campaign with NOAA 13380 as the new target region
due to the increased likelihood of an M5 flare or greater over the
next 24 hours.

The position of NOAA 13380 on 1-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is:

S10W46, ( 671", -228" )
