Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has been at a moderate level as the target region
NOAA 13363 rotates beyond the west limb. The largest event in
the previous 24 hours was an occulted M2.1 flare at 20:16 UT
yesterday from 13363. 13363 also produced two high C-class flares.
Please note that a northeast limb region (N15E85, unnumbered yet)
produced an occulted M1.5 flare at 06:45 UT yesterday and
NOAA 13376 (N23E27, beta-gamma/D-type) produced two low
M-class flares (an M1.3 at 19:32 UT and an M1.4 at 20:00 UT).
The Major Flare Watch campaign will continue on NOAA 13363
for a final 24 hours. Low M-class activities are still expected from
various regions with a slight chance of an above M5 flare in the
next 24 hours.
