Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity continues at a moderate level. The largest event
since the last message was an M4.0 flare at 07/16/17:36 UT
from the target region NOAA 13363. 13363 was also the source
of eight C-class flares during the period. It retains a beta-delta/
D-type configuration. NOAA 13372 produced two ~M1 flares
(an M1.1 at 07/16/08:16 UT and an M1.8 07/16/14:57 UT) and
two ~C2 flares and has been designated as a beta-gamma-delta/
F-type region. The Major Flare Watch campaign will continue
on NOAA 13363. Further low M-class activities are expected
with a chance of an above M5 flare in the next few days.

The position of NOAA 13363 on July 17 at 03:30 UT

S22W61 (766", -386")
