Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity continues at a high level. NOAA 13664 produced numerous
M- and X-class flares over the last 24 hours, the largest being an
X2.3 at 08:45 UT today. NOAA 13664 has grown substantially in area,
reaching 1200 μh, and has a substantial associated flux. The Major
Flare Watch will continue with NOAA 13664 as the target region.
Further M-class activity is expected, with a good chance for
additional >M5 flares in the next 24-48 hours.

The position of NOAA 13664 on 09-May-2024 at 11:30 UT is:

S19W31, (464",-265")
