Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased since the last message with a flurry of
B-level activity from NOAA 12846. However, the largest event was a
B9.7 flare at 22:08 UT yesterday from NOAA 12849. NOAA 12849 has
developed a beta configuration due to renewed flux emergence and shall
continue as the target region. Additional low-level activity possible.
The position of NOAA 12849 on 28-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
S17W10, ( 164", -362" )

Dear Collaborators,
Quiet-Sun conditions continue. NOAA 12849 has continued to produce low
B-class events since the last message, and remains spotless. It shall
continue as the target region as it crosses the central meridian.
Additional isolated low-level events possible over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12849 on 27-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
S15E07, ( -117", -330" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has returned to very low levels. NOAA 12849 produced
two low B-level events since the last message. The region remains
spotless but shall continue as the target for a further 24 hours.
Possibility of additonal isolated low-level events.
The position of NOAA 12849 on 26-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
S24E22, ( -330", -458" )

Dear Collaborators,
Quiet-Sun conditions continue. The only event of note since the last
message was a B2.5 flare at 04:42 UT from NOAA 12848. The complex of
NOAA 12847 and 12849 has undergone some minor flux emergence over the
past 24 and shall remain the target region. Slight chance of isolated
low-level events.
The position of NOAA 12849 on 25-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
S27E18, ( -260", -502" )

Dear Collaborators,
NOAA 12849 was the source of a C4.3 flare at 23:54 UT yesterday, as
well as some B-level activity, but has continued to decay and is now
spotless. It shall continue to be the target region for the next 24
hours with further B-level activity possible.
The position of NOAA 12849 on 24-Jul-2021 at 15:30 UT is:

Dear Collaborators,
Quiet-Sun conditions continue with only a few low B-level events
occurring since the last message. All numbered active regions
currently visible have very simple (alpha or beta) configurations, and
are either in decay or due to rotate behind the western limb. NOAA
12849 shall continue to be the target region although no change in
activity is expected over the next 24 hours. Also include NOAA 12847
in your field of view if possible.
The position of NOAA 12849 on 23-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
S18E54, ( -728", -338" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at low levels despite the presence of seven
numbered active regions on the visible solar disk. The target region
in the southeast limb, which was the source of a C1.2 flare at 15:55
UT yesterday, has now been designated as NOAA 12849 and is classified
as an alpha region. It shall continue as the target region for a
further 24 hours, and please include NOAA 12847 in your field of view
if possible. Only isolated low-level events likely at this time.
The position of NOAA 12849 on 22-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
S18E68, ( -833", -320" )

Dear Collaborators,
There are currently five numbered active regions on the visible solar
disk, plus an unnumbered beta region in the northeast quadrant. The
majority of the B-level activity since the last message has come from
a region currently behind the southeast limb. This region also
produced a C1.0 flare at 23:19 UT yesterday. This region shall be the
new target region but please include NOAA 12847 in the southeast
quadrant in your field of view as well if possible. Further B- and
C-level activity likely over the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 21-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
S20E88, ( -886", -324" )

Dear Collaborators,
The target region in the northeast quadrant has now been designated as
NOAA 12846 and is classified as having an alpha/H-type configuration.
This region has remained quiescent since the last message, although a
region beyond the southeast limb has produced two C1 flares. NOAA
12846 shall remain the target region for a further 24 hours with
further B-level activity possible.
The position of NOAA 12846 on 20-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
N25E69, ( -799", 372" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has continued at the B-level since the last message,
the largest being a B4.4 flare at 01:20 UT today. The source of the
flares remains the partially occulted region currently behind the
northeast limb. The region is unnumbered and the magnetic
configuration remains uncertain at this time but it shall continue as
the target region. Further B-level activity expected over the next 24
hours with chance for a C-class flare as the region rotates into view.
The approximate position of the target region on 19-Jul-2021 at 11:30 UT is:
N24E84, ( -859", 376" )
