Dear Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is low-to-moderate. Target region NOAA 13730
has decreased slightly in sunspot area and number of spots since the last
message, but this is likely partly due to its rotation towards the South
West limb. This region has now been reclassified as a beta/B-type sunspot
group and produced just one flare, a C4.2 on 4-Jul-2024 at 12:21 UT. The
largest magnitude flare in the period, an M1.0 on 4-Jul-2024 at 14:06 UT,
came from the plage remnants of the sunspot region previously numbered as
NOAA 13723. More C-class activity is expected over the following 24-hour
period, with a chance for additional low M-class flares.

The position of NOAA 13730 on 4-Jul-2024 at 15:30 UT is:

S18W81 , ( 886", -299" )
