Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at very low levels. The target region NOAA
12737 retains its beta configuration but has slowed down in terms of
its development since the last message. No activity expected over the
next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12737 on 2-Apr-2019 at 13:30 UT is:
N12E21, ( -337", 298" )

Dear Collaborators,
The newly-emerged beta/B-type active region in the northeast quadrant
is now numbered as NOAA 12737, but it has remained quiescent since the
last message. The region is continuing to develop and is showing some
dynamic coronal behaviour. Chance exists for some minor, low-level
activity over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12737 on 1-Apr-2019 at 13:30 UT is:
N12E35, ( -540", 286" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar X-ray flux remains at background levels. A new bipolar active
region has emerged in the northeast quadrant over the last few hours
but is not yet numbered. This shall be the new target region, with a
slight chance for some low-level activity over the next 24 hours if
the region continues to develop.
The approximate position of the target region on 31-Mar-2019 at 17:00 UT is:
N12E48, ( -695", 272" )

Dear Collaborators,
The visible solar disk is now featureless, with the northern
hemisphere filament having decayed since the last message. There is no
target region available today.

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at background levels. The only viable target on
the visible solar disk continues to be the high latitude filament,
which is showing signs of decay. No activity expected over the next 24
hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 29-Mar-2019 at 14:33 UT is:
N35W09, ( 118", 640" )

Dear Collaborators,
The visible solar disk remains spotless with no change in activity
since the last message. The target shall continue to be the small
filament crossing the northern central meridian. No activity expected
over the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 28-Mar-2019 at 14:30 UT is:
N45E02, ( -18", 757" )

Dear Collaborators,
The visible solar disk is now spotless and solar X-ray has returned to
background levels as both NOAA 12735 and 12736 have rotated behind the
western limb. The new target region shall be the filament in the
northeast quadrant visible in H-alpha images. No significant increase
in activity expected over the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 27-Mar-2019 at 08:30 UT is:
N55E19, ( -179", 845" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has returned to background levels with NOAA 12736 now
beyond the western limb. NOAA 12735, also now on the western limb, has
produced some low B-level events since the last message and shall be
the new target region. No significant change in activity expected
before the region also rotates behind the solar disk.
The position of NOAA 12735 on 26-Mar-2019 at 14:30 UT is:
N02W91, ( 960", 31" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at low levels. NOAA 12736 has continued to
produce B-level activity over the past 24 hours, the largest being a
B9.6 flare at 19:16 UT yesterday. The region is now on the western
limb and shall remain the target region for an additional 24 hours.
Further B-level activity likely with chance for an isolated C-class
flare before west limb passage.
The position of NOAA 12736 on 25-Mar-2019 at 14:30 UT is:
N08W91, ( 952", 130" )

Dear Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is low. NOAA 12736 has been reclassified
as a beta/E-type sunspot group as it now rotates up to the North West
limb, although this suffers from significant foreshortening effects.
NOAA 12736 continued to produce multiple B-class events, the largest
being a B9.9 flare on 23-Mar-2019 at 23:30 UT. More B-class activity
is expected over the next 24-hour period.
The position of NOAA 12736 on 24-Mar-2019 at 12:30 UT is:
N08W84, ( 948", 145" )
