Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has slightly diminished since the last message. NOAA
13590 produced several flares, the largest being an M2.1 at 16:47 UT
yesterday. NOAA remains classified as a beta-gamma-delta type region
and now has an area of 1450 μh. This region appears to be showing a
reduction in flux and number of associated spots. However, due to the
sustained complexity and substantial area of NOAA 13590, the Major
Flare Watch will be extended for a further 24 hours, with a chance for
isolated >M5 activity.

The position of NOAA 13590 on 26-Feb-2024 at 12:30 UT is:

N18W20, (316",406")
