Dear Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is low-to-moderate. Target region NOAA
13376 has now rotated over the North West limb, with only some of
its highest-lying loops still visible. This region was the source
of multiple mid-to-high C-class flares since the last message. The
target will however switch to NOAA 13388 that rotated on disk over
the South East limb in the last 48 hours. NOAA 13388 is classified
as only a beta/C-type sunspot group, but was the source of an M1.7
flare on 28-Jul-2023 at 22:04 UT - the largest magnitude flare in
the period. More C-class activity is expected over the following
24 hours, with a good chance for another low M-class flare.

The position of NOAA 13388 on 28-Jul-2023 at 11:00 UT is:

S23E56 , ( -723", -414" )
