Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has decreased since the last message. The
target region NOAA 13738 has been still the most productive
in the period. This region was a source of six M-class and
numerous C-class flares, with the largest being an M3.0 at
04:05 UT yesterday and an M2.7 at 09:21 UT today. NOAA
13738 has grown in terms of sunspot area by consolidating
some spots and it remains a beta-gamma-delta/F-type sunspot
group. 13738 shall remain the target with the Major Flare Watch
in effect. Further low-M flares are expected, with a chance of
an above-M5 flare in the next 24-48 hours.

The position of NOAA 13738 at 11:30 UT on 15-Jul-2024 is:

S09W60 (808", -183")
