Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been at a high level since the last message.
The target region NOAA 13738 produced an X1.5 flare an hour
ago (at 02:23 UT) and also six M-class flares (including an M5.3
at 12:21 UT and an M5.0 at 22:44 UT yesterday). 13738 has
been designated as a beta-gamma-delta/F-type configuration
with a sunspot area of 1100 MSH. At this time we implement
the Major Flare Watch campaign on this region. Additional M-
class activities are expected with a good chance of >M5 flare
in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of NOAA 13738 on July 14 at 00:00 UT is:
S09W40 (600", -200")
