MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2850 was the source of four
B-class events since the last message. The
largest was a B2.6 at 08/06/19:21 UT. 2850 has
completed west limb passage. The target will switch
to the return of old NOAA 2842 rotating over the
northeastern limb. The region is currently spotless.
This region produced a minor B1.6 event at
08/06/19:21 UT. Minor A- and B-class events possible
in the next 24 hour period.
The position of the target on August 07 at 14:00 UT is:
N25E80 (Solar X = -845", Solar Y =382")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
The spotless target region NOAA 2850 was the source
of a B1.4 event at 08/05/23:31 UT. There is a region located
just beyond the northeastern limb at approximately N25
that will likely be the target tomorrow. Only minor events
expected in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2850 on August 06 at 10:00 UT is:
S30W75 (Solar X = 792", Solar Y = -493")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2850 has decayed significantly
since the last message and is now spotless. There
are two regions on the visible disk that have tiny
B-type/beta sunspot groups (S12E47 and N16W03).
No significant events expected anytime soon.
The position of NOAA 2850 on August 05 at 15:30 UT is:
S31W64 (Solar X = 729", Solar Y = - 522")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
The leading sunspot in target region NOAA 2850 has
decayed significantly. The trailing sunspots of the
simple B-type/beta sunspot group are mostly unchanged.
2850 produced three A- and two B-class events since
the last message. The largest event was a B5.9 at
08/04/03:29 UT. A- and B-class events possible in
the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2850 on August 04 at 14:00 UT is:
S32W50 (Solar X = 616", Solar Y = -554")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2850 was the source of two minor A-class
events and two B-1.0 events since the last message. The
region's leader sunspot area increased but the trailing spots
have decayed somewhat. The region is maintaining
its magnetically simple C-type/beta sunspot group.
A- and B-class events possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2850 on August 03 at 14:00 UT is:
S32W37 (Solar X =484", Solar Y = -567")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
The target region (NOAA 2846) has completed west
limb passage. The new target will be the recently emerged
NOAA 2850. 2850 is currently displaying a simple C-type/beta
sunspot group that appears to be slowly developing.
Minor A- and B-type events possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2850 on August 02 at 14:30 UT is:
S32W23 (Solar X = 314", Solar Y = -576")

Dear Collaborators,
NOAA 12847 was the source of a long-duration B2 flare close to the
southwest limb at 16:00 UT yesterday, while NOAA 12846 has remained
quiescent since the last message. Both regions remain spotless as they
approach the western limb. NOAA 12846 shall continue as the target
region for a further 24 hours although no change in activity is
expected before west limb passage.
The position of NOAA 12846 on 1-Aug-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
N24W91, ( 863", 383" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar X-ray flux has remained below the B1 level since the last
message. NOAA 12846 has remained quiescent as it approaches the
western limb. It shall continue as the target region for further 24
hours although no change in activity is expected at this time.
The position of NOAA 12846 on 31-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
N24W82, ( 855", 370" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at very low levels with the visible solar
disk remaining spotless. The only event of note since the last message
was a B1.1 flare from NOAA 12849 at 19:25 UT yesterday. The decaying
page of NOAA 12846 in the northwest quadrant shall remain the target
region for a further 24 hours although no change in activity is
expected at this time.
The position of NOAA 12846 on 30-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
N24W68, ( 801", 351" )

Dear Collaborators,
The visible solar disk is now spotless. NOAA 12846 was the source of
several low B-class flares since the last message, while NOAA 12849
has remained quiescent. NOAA 12846 maintains a closed loop system
connecting its decaying bipolar plage and shall be the new target
region. Possibility of isolated low-level events over the next 24
hours.
The position of NOAA 12846 on 29-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
N24W54, ( 699", 333" )
