Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has slightly increased since the last message. The largest
event in the period was a C5.2 flare at 04:31 UT today from NOAA 13538
(N21W19), but this region has been downgraded from a beta-gamma to
a beta configuration. Two southeastern limb regions have been numbered
as NOAA 13540 and 13541, which has remained active during the period,
being the source of several low C-class flares. The target region NOAA
13536 retains its beta-gamma magnetic configuration and also produced
a few low-to-mid C-class flares in the period. 13536 shall continue as the
default target region due to its magnetic complexity and its past flaring
history. Additional C-class flares are expected in the next 24 hours, with
a slight chance for an isolated low M-class flare.

The position of NOAA 13536 on 6-Jan-2024 at 08:30 UT is:

N06E06, (-101",162")
