Dear Collaborators,
The target region NOAA 12897 was the source of a few A-
and B-class flares including the largest one, a B2.5 flare, in
the past 24 hours. 12897 remains its Alpha/H-type configuration
and seems to begin its decay phase. Only low activities are
possible in the following 24-hour period.
The position of NOAA 12897 on November 18 at 00:30 UT is:
N15E48 (-698", 224")

Dear Collaborators,
The target region has been numbered as NOAA 12897 having
an Alpha/H-type configuration. 12897 produced about eight low
B-class flares in the past 24 hours, the largest one being a B2.6
at 11/17/04:49 UT. There were also several ~B2 (below B2.5)
flares emerging from NOAA 12894 and a new region nearby.
Further low B-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12897 on November 17 at 04:30 UT is:
N15E59 (-804", 229")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at a very low level. The largest event in the past
24 hours was a B2.6 flare produced by the plage region NOAA 12895. At
present there are two regions with sunspots, NOAA 12894 and 12896, on
the visible solar disk, both of which have an Alpha/H-type configuration.
Today the target will continue to be the limb region. Some spots have
emerged from this region. B-class flares are expected in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target on November 16 at 04:30 UT is:
N14E79 (-870", 230")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at the B1 level. Yesterday's target NOAA 12894
has decayed to an Alpha/H-type region and did not show any notable
events. Today the target will switch to a new region that is still beyond
the north-east limb but produced a B1.6 flare in the past 12 hours. This
region is showing some EUV loops and jets. B-class activities are
expected in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target on November 15 at 04:30 UT is:
N14E89 (-900", 240")

Dear Collaborators,
Quiescent solar conditions have returned since the last message, with
solar X-ray flux remaining steady around the B1 level. NOAA 12894 has
decayed significantly and now comprises a solitary alpha spot. It
shall remain the target region for a further 24 hour although only
minor activity is expected at this time.
The position of NOAA 12894 on 14-Nov-2021 at 12:30 UT is:
S28W40, ( 551", -489" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at low levels as NOAA 12895 has continued to
decay. Former target region NOAA 12894 in the southwest quadrant has
undergone new flux emergence since the last message, producing several
B-class flares and a C1.2 flare at 08:33 UT today. It is now
classified as a beta-gamma region due to mixed polarities in its
leader spot, and shall once again be the default target region.
Further B- and C-level activity likely.
The position of NOAA 12894 on 13-Nov-2021 at 12:30 UT is:
S27W24, ( 352", -482" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar X-ray flux has remained steady around the B1 level since the
last message. The only event of note was a B4.3 flare at 18:06 UT
yesterday from the target region NOAA 12895. The region is still
classified as having a beta configuration but has decayed
significantly over the past 24 hours. Slight chance for an additional
isolated low-level event as the region crosses the central meridian.
The position of NOAA 12895 on 12-Nov-2021 at 12:30 UT is:
N22E01, ( -15", 314" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at low levels. NOAA 12895 has produced a few
low B-class flares since the last message, including a B3.8 flare at
04:13 UT today. The region remains unchanged in terms of size and
complexity, and shall continue as the target region. Further isolated
low-level events possible.
The position of NOAA 12895 on 11-Nov-2021 at 12:30 UT is:
N24E14, ( -214", 346" )

Dear Collaborators,
Quiet-Sun conditions have returned after the M2 flare that occurred
behind the western limb yesterday. NOAA 12895 has remained quiescent
and unchanged since the last message. It retains its beta
configuration and shall continue as the target region. Possibility for
some low-level activity over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12895 on 10-Nov-2021 at 12:30 UT is:
N24E29, ( -430", 349" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased suddenly due to the M2 flare currently in
progress from parting region NOAA 12891 behind the western limb. The
target region in the northeast quadrant has now been named as NOAA
12895 and is classified as a beta/D-type region. It has continued to
produce B-level activity since the last message. Further B-level
activity likely with chance for an isolated C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 12895 on 9-Nov-2021 at 16:30 UT is:
N26E40, ( -561", 384" )
