Dear Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is moderate. Target region NOAA 13192
decayed since since the last message, decreasing slightly in spot
area and losing its internal mixing designation to be classified
as a beta/F-type sunspot group. This region has produced several
C-class flares in the period but NOAA 13190 produced the largest
flares, including two M1.8 flares on 17-Jan-2023 at 23:16 UT and
18-Jan-2023 at 10:21 UT. This increase in activity by NOAA 13190
comes despite losing its delta-spot designation (now classified
as a beta-gamma/E-type sunspot group). The target changes now to
NOAA 13190. Further C-class activity is expected in the following
24-hour period, with a good chance for additional M-class flares.

The position of NOAA 13190 on 18-Jan-2023 at 14:30 UT is:

S14E12 , ( -198", -157" )
