MM#009 Default Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 10 Nov '22

10 Nov '22

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity continues at low levels. NOAA 13141 has continued to produce ~C1 flares since the last message. There was also a C4.3 flare from a spotless region in the southeast quadrant at 19:46 UT yesterday. NOAA 13141 retains its beta-gamma configuration, and shall continue as the target region as it approaches the central meridian, although we shall end the Major Flare Watch at this time. Further low level events likely over the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13141 on 10-Nov-2022 at 12:30 UT is: N14E06, ( -98", 179" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

MM#003 Major Flare Watch
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 09 Nov '22

09 Nov '22

Dear Collaborators, Solar X-ray flux has remained steady below the C1 level. NOAA 13141 has remained relatively quiescent since the M5.2 flare on 6-Nov-2022. However, the region has increased in both size and complexity since the last message and is now classified as a beta-gamma region. NOAA 13141 shall continue as the target region with a Major Flare Watch in effect for another 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13141 on 9-Nov-2022 at 12:30 UT is: N14E18, ( -291", 179" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

MM#003 Major Flare Watch
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 08 Nov '22

08 Nov '22

Dear Collaborators, NOAA 13141 in the northeast has remained unchanged in terms of size and complexity since the last message. It was the source of a long-duration C3.1 flare at 13:16 UT yesterday, but has been otherwise quiescent. It shall remain the target region with a Major Flare Watch in effect due to the increased possibility of an >M5 flare over the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13141 on 8-Nov-2022 at 00:30 UT is: N15E37, ( -564", 202" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

MM#003 Major Flare Watch

07 Nov '22

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has increased over the past 24 hours with an M5.2 flare from NOAA 13141 at 23:59 UT yesterday. The region is currently classified as a beta/E-type region with an area of 460uH, but is showing signs of mixed polarity within the positive leader spot. NOAA 13141 shall continue as the target region, although we are issuing a Major Flare Watch alert at this time due to the increased possibility of another >M5 flare within the next 24-48 hours. The position of NOAA 13141 on 7-Nov-2022 at 12:30 UT is: N15E44, ( -651", 206" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has been at a very low level. There are seven regions with sunspots on the visible solar disk, but most of them have been flare quiet. The target region NOAA 13141 was the source of a C1.2 flare at 11/06/01:10 UT (the largest one of the period) plus several high B-class events. 13141 has been designated as a beta/D-type region with an increase in the sunspot area and number of spots. It is showing mixed polarities in its leading portion. Additional C-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13141 on November 6 at 08:30 UT is: N14E58 (-797", 200") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, The limb target region has been numbered as NOAA 13141 with an Alpha/H-type configuration. 13141 produced two low C-class flares (a C1.7 at 11/04/22:13 UT and a C1.5 at 11/04/18:47 UT) and also a few high B-class flares. This region appears to be showing a magnetic flux emergence as it rotates onto the visible solar disk. Further C-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13141 on November 5 at 08:30 UT is: N15E70 (-879", 228") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, The largest event since the last message was a C5.6 flare at 11/04/07:13 UT produced by a northeast limb region. This region has some sunspots as rotating onto the visible disk and we will watch this region today. Yesterday's target NOAA 13135 was classified as a beta/D-type region again and has been flare quiet for more than one day. An additional high C-class flare is probable in the next 24 hours. The approximate position of the target on November 4 at 13:30 UT is: N14E89 (-940", 270") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity continues at a very low level. The largest event since the last message was a C1.4 flare at 11/03/06:58 UT produced by NOAA 13136 that was classified as a beta/D-type region. 13136 also produced another C1 flare plus two high B-class flares. This region has been losing its spots. The target region NOAA 13135 was the source of two ~C1 flares during the period. It has been designated as a beta/E-type region (again). Only high B-class and low C-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours. The approximate position of NOAA 13135 on November 3 at 16:15 UT is: N26W07 (100", 360") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity continues at a very low level. The largest event since the last message was a C2.2 flare at 11/02/02:07 UT, produced by target region NOAA 13135. 13135 also produced four high B-class flares during the period. It has been classified as a beta/D-type configuration again. Only high B-class and low C-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours. The approximate position of NOAA 13135 on November 2 at 13:30 UT is: N26E07 (-100", 360") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity continues at a very low level. The largest events since the last message were two C1.2 flares produced by target region NOAA 13135 and a new region at the northeast limb. 13135 has been designated as a beta-gamma/E-type region with losing its sunspots. Only B-class and low C-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours. The approximate position of NOAA 13135 on November 1 at 13:30 UT is: N27E18 (-260", 370") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
