Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a very low level. The decayed plage of the region
previously numbered as NOAA 12739 has now rotated up to the North West
limb and will remain the target for a further 24 hours. No flares have
occurred in the past 24 hours, with no change in flaring level expected
in the following 24-hour period.
The approximate position of this region on 22-Apr-2019 at 14:30 UT is:
N06W90, ( 949", 99" )

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2738 is now located beyond the
northwestern limb but is still displaying minor limb surges.
The current visible solar disk is spotless. The target will
switch to decaying spotless NOAA 2739. If possible, include
NOAA 2738 west limb passage at N06 degrees. No significant
events expected in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2739 on April 21 at 13:30 UT is:
N06W75 (Solar X = 917", Solar Y = 121")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2738 produced 4 limb occulted
B-class events since the last message. The largest
was a B8.1 at 04/20/00:50 UT. The large H-type sunspot
located in the leading portion of 2738 has completed west
limb passage. 2738 will continue to be the target for the
next 24 hour period. No significant solar flare events
expected.
The position of NOAA 2738 on April 20 at 13:30 UT is:
N06W91 (Solar X = 949", Solar Y = 097")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Solar flare activity remains at a very low level.
Target region NOAA 2738 (H-type/alpha sunspot
group) is mostly unchanged and quiescent since
the last message. No significant solar flare activity
expected in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2738 on April 19 at 13:30 UT is:
N06W84 (Solar X = 944", Solar Y = 108")

Dear Collaborators,
Quiet-Sun conditions continue. The newly emerged active region in the
northwest quadrant has now been designated as NOAA 12739. It is a
small, beta region and has not produced any discernible activity since
the last message. NOAA 12738 shall continue to be the target region
for a further 24 hours as it nears the western limb. No significant
change in activity expected.
The position of NOAA 12738 on 18-Apr-2019 at 07:30 UT is:
N06W66, ( 869", 135" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar X-ray flux has remained at background levels since the last
message. The alpha region NOAA 12738 remains quiescent and unchanged.
A new bipolar emerging flux region has appeared close to disk center
but has not yet caused any appreciable variation in activity. NOAA
12738 shall remain the target region for a further 24 hours although
no change in activity is expected at this time.
The position of NOAA 12738 on 17-Apr-2019 at 13:30 UT is:
N06W56, ( 789", 150" )

Dear Collaborators,
The target region NOAA 12738 was the source of a B3.3 flare at 19:27
UT yesterday. The region remains unchanged since the last message,
retaining its alpha/H-type configuration. Slight chance of an
additional isolated B-class flare over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12738 on 16-Apr-2019 at 13:30 UT is:
N06W42, ( 638", 168" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has returned to low levels. NOAA 12738 has been mostly
quiescent since the last message, producing only a few B1 flares. The
region has reverted to an alpha configuration after its trailing
portion has decayed significantly, but it shall remain the target.
Slight chance of an isolated low B-class flare over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12738 on 15-Apr-2019 at 13:30 UT is:
N06W27, ( 433", 182" )

Dear Collaborators,
The target region NOAA 12738 produced A-class events only
in the past 24 hours. 12738 retains its beta/C-type classification.
It shows some EUV jets and H-alpha surges in its leading portion.
Only very low activities are likely in the following 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 12738 on April 14 at 13:30 UT is:
N06W14 (231", 191")

Dear Collaborators,
The target region NOAA 12738 produced a few B-class flares,
including a B7.1 at 11:29 UT yesterday. 12738 has been re-classified
as a beta/C-type configuration. Further B-class events are expected
in the following 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 12738 on April 13 at 13:00 UT is:
N06W01 (16", 195")
