Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has slightly reduced since the last message. Several
flares were produced, the largest being a C7.8 from NOAA 13786 at
16:53 UT yesterday. NOAA 13784 only produced a single C4.3 flare in
the last 24 hours. This region is still classified as a
beta-gamma-delta with a sunspot area of 680 μh. The Major Flare Watch
will remain active due to the size and complexity of NOAA 13784.
Further C-class activity is likely, with a slight chance for an
isolated >M5 event in the next 24-48 hours.
The position of NOAA 13784 on 16-August-2024 at 11:30 UT is:
N15W26, (402",147")
