Dear Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is low-to-moderate. Target NOAA 13213 has
now rotated over the North West limb. This region continued to be the
most flare-productive region since the last message, being the source
of several C-class and three low M-class flares, including the largest
magnitude flare in the period - an M2.0 on 15-Feb-2023 at 05:16 UT.
The Major Flare Watch will remain in effect for a final 24 hours on
the limb location where 13213 has exited the disk, as this region's
high-lying loops are still visible. More C-class flares are expected
in the following 24-hour period, with a chance for another M-class
flare.

The disk-exiting limb position of NOAA 13213 on 15-Feb-2023 at 19:30 UT is:

N28W90 , ( 856", 459" )
