Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has slightly increased since the last message.
The largest event during the period was an M6.1 flare at
14:50 UT today, produced by the target region NOAA 13697.
13697 remains classified as a beta-gamma-delta configuration
and was also the source of six C-class flares, including two
~C8 flares. The Major Flare Watch will continue with NOAA
13697 as the target region, due to its magnetic complexity
and continued flux emergence. Please note that a southeast
limb region (S10E89) also produced a C9.5 flare in the period.
Additional >M5 activity is possible in the next 24-48 hours.
The position of NOAA 13697 on 6-Jun-2024 at 15:30 UT is:
S18W42 (603",-293")
