Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has been at a low level since the last message.
The largest event in the past 24 hours was a C6.7 at 05:42 UT
yesterday produced by NOAA 13683 (S24W74, beta/D-type),
which was associated with a filament eruption. The target region
NOAA 13685 retains a beta-gamma/E-type configuration but
decreases in the sunspot area. 13685 only produced a C2.2
flare during the period. While the nearby region NOAA 13686
(S06E23, beta/C-type) produced three low C-class flares. At this
moment we end the Major Flare Watch campaign, remaining
13685 as the target, but please also include 13686 in your field
of view if possible. C-class activities are expected with some
chance of an M-class flare in the next 24 hours.

The position of NOAA 13685 on May 21 at 03:30 UT is:

S12E13 (-209", -167")
