Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at a very low level with the GOES
soft X-ray flux below C1. The largest event since the last
message was a B7.0 at 06/04/17:29 UT emergent from
NOAA 13024. Today the target will switch to 13024 that has
a beta/C-type sunspot group. This region has been in its
decay phase. Only minor activities are expected in the
next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13024 on June 5 at 03:30 UT is:
S35W59 (664", -541")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at a very low level. The largest
event since the last message was a B5.1 flare produced
by an east limb region at 06/04/01:15 UT. The target
region NOAA 13026 was flare quiet during the period
and has decayed to a beta/C-type region. We will watch
this region for a final 24 hours before it rotates beyond
the west limb. Only minor activities are expected in the
following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13026 on June 4 at 11:30 UT is:
N16W70 (855", 262")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at a very low level. The largest
event since the last message was a partially occulted
C1.2 flare emergent from an east limb region. The target
region NOAA 13026 was the source of five B-class flares.
13026 remains its beta/D-type configuration but increases
the sunspot area and also number of spots. This region
seems to enter its decay phase. B-class activities are
expected with a slight chance of a C-class flare in the
next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13026 on June 3 at 11:30 UT is:
N15W56 (758", 248")

Dear Collaborators,
The target region has been numbered as NOAA 13026 with
a beta/D-type configuration. This region produced seven
B-class flares in the past 24 hours, the largest one being a
B8.6 at 06/01/11:37 UT. It continues to emerge mixed polarities
in its intermediate portion. Further B-class activities are expected
with a chance of a C-class flare in the following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13026 on June 2 at 03:30 UT is:
N16W38 (561", 268")

Dear Collaborators,
The largest event since the last message was a B6.1 flare
produced by yesterday's target region NOAA 13025 at
05/31/14:53 UT. 13025 remains its beta/D-type configuration
and is now at the west limb. Today we will switch the target
to a newly emerged region (should be numbered as
NOAA 13026 tomorrow) in the northwest quadrant . This
new region has produced a B3.7 flare and is still emerging
magnetic fluxes especially in its trailing portion. Additional
B-class activities are expected with a chance of a C-class
flare in the following 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target on June 1 at 07:30 UT is:
N17W27 (420", 250")

Dear Collaborators,
The largest event in the past 24 hours was a B6.3 flare
produced by NOAA 13024 (S33E03) at 05/30 15:01 UT.
The target region NOAA 13025 was the source of three
low B-class flares. 13025 has been designated as a beta/
D-type configuration with significantly increasing the
sunspot area. Further B-class activities are expected with
a chance of a low C-class flare when the target region
rotates to the west limb.
The position of NOAA 13025 on May 31 at 03:30 UT is:
N27W65 (765", 435")

Dear Collaborators,
The target region has been numbered as NOAA 13025 with a
beta/C-type configuration. It has produced four B-class flares since
the last message. Note that there were two C-class flares (C1.5
and C1.4) produced by the plage region NOAA 13019 and also
NOAA 13023 in the past few hours. The target region 13025 is
emerging negative fluxes in its leading positive polarity. More
B-class activities are expected with a chance of C-class flares
in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13025 on May 30 at 03:30 UT is:
N28W55 (685", 452")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 3023 (S13E16, H-type/alpha) was
stable and quiescent in the past 24 hours. The target
will switch to an EFR that is currently displaying a
B-type/beta sunspot group. This region was the
source of a B7.1 event at 05/29/17:05. A C-class
event is possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of the target region on May 29 at 14:00 UT is:
N27W45 (Solar X = 598", Solar Y = 441")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 3014 is now located well beyond
the northwestern limb but was the source of a few limb
occulted C-class events since the last message. The
regions currently located on the visible solar disk all
have simple alpha magnetic classifications. The default
target will switch to NOAA 3023. (H-type/alpha). No
significant solar flare activity expected in the next 24
hour period.
The position of NOAA 3023 on May 28 at 15:30 UT is:
S14E29 (Solar X = -446", Solar Y = -214")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 3014 (E-type/beta) has now
almost completed west limb passage. 3014 was the
source of a couple of minor C-class events since the
last message. C-class events are possible with only
a slight chance of an isolated M-class event in the
next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 3014 on May 27 at 15:30 UT is:
N22W91 (Solar X = 877", Solar Y = 354")
