Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a high level. Target region NOAA 13229 was the
source of an X2.2 flare on 17-Feb-2023 at 19:38 UT. This region has
shown signs of minor growth and remains classified as a beta/D-type
sunspot group. At this point we commence an MM#003 Major Flare Watch
on NOAA 13229. C-class activity is expected over the next 24 hours,
with a chance for mid-to-high M-class flares.
The position of NOAA 13229 on 18-Feb-2023 at 13:00 UT is:
N25E51 , ( -685", 475" )
