Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has decreased to a moderate level. The
southeast region (still unnumbered) near the limb became
the most productive and was a source of multiple flares,
with the largest magnitude being an M2.4 flare at 4:58 UT
today. This region is in proximity to multiple sunspots that
show mixed polarities. Today the Major Flare Watch region
will switch to the southeast limb from the northeast limb.
Yesterday’s target (N30E86) only produced two low-C flares.
Further C-class activities are expected with a chance of a
>M5 flare in the next 24 hours.

The approximate position of the target on 13-Apr-2024 at 15:00 UT is:

S10E89 (-950", -200")
