MM#009 Default Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 16 Aug '23

16 Aug '23

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has slightly diminished since the last message. A small number of low C-class flares were produced over the last 24 hours, the largest being a C2.3 from NOAA 13405 at 21:42 UT yesterday. NOAA 13405 is currently classified as a beta type region as it further progresses onto the solar disk. NOAA 13405 will remain the target region for a further 24 hours with a slight chance of continued C-class activity. The position of NOAA 13405 on 16-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is: N10E58, (-792",106") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has slightly increased since the last message. Multiple C-class flares were produced over the last 24 hours, the largest being a C9.0 from NOAA 13405 at 20:30 UT yesterday. NOAA 13395 also produced a C4.1 at 06:41 UT today as it continues to transit the northwest limb. NOAA 13395 appears to have slightly diminished since the last message. The target region will switch to NOAA 13405 as it moves onto the solar disk from the northeast limb. This region is currently too close to the limb to determine its precise configuration, possibility for further C-class activity over the next 24 hours with a slight chance of an isolated M-class event as it rotates onto the visible disk. The position of NOAA 13405 on 15-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is: N11E68, (-863",139") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has further diminished since the last message. A small number of low C-class flares were produced over the last 24 hours, the largest being a C2.1 from NOAA 13395 at 22:34 UT yesterday. NOAA 13395 retains its beta-delta configuration as it begins its transit of the northwest limb. NOAA 13395 will continue to be the target region for the next 24 hours, with a slight chance of continued C-class activity. The position of NOAA 13395 on 14-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is approximately: N16W63 = (811", 212") The position of NOAA on at UT is: See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has slightly diminished since the last message. Multiple C-class flares were produced over the last 24 hours, the largest being a C5.2 from NOAA 13395 at 23:44 UT yesterday. NOAA 13395 is now reclassified as a beta-delta configuration as it begins its approach to the northwest limb. This region will continue to be the target region for the next 24 hours. Further C-class activity is likely, with a chance for an isolated M-class flare. The position of NOAA 13395 on 13-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is approximately: N13W51 = (716", 146") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has continued at a moderate level since the last message. Multiple C-class flares were produced over the last 24 hours, the largest being a C8.9 from NOAA 13395 at 09:04 UT today. NOAA 13395 appears to have further developed in the last 24 hours, showing signs of increased flux emergence. This region remains classified as a beta-gamma configuration and will continue to be the target region with chances of further C-class activity over the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13395 on 12-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is approximately: N15W37 = (549", 161") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has increased since the last message. Multiple C-class flares were produced over the last 24 hours, the largest being a C8.3 from NOAA 13395 at 06:30 UT today. NOAA 13398 also produced a C7.6 flare at 22:09 UT yesterday and now appears to be transiting the southwest limb. NOAA 13395 retains its beta-gamma configuration and will continue to be the target region, with chances of further C-class activity over the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13395 on 11-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is approximately: N13W21, (335", 116") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has diminished further since the last message. A small number of C-class flares were produced, the largest being a C5.5 at 02:26 UT today from NOAA 13398 near the southwest limb. NOAA 13394 also produced a C4.0 flare at 00:14 UT today, however currently it appears relatively stable. No further activity has been produced from target region NOAA 13387 since the last message and this region has now fully rotated out of view. NOAA 13395 has shown signs of flux emergence, increasing in complexity over the last 24 hours. Currently it can be classified as a beta-gamma type region. The target region will switch to NOAA 13395 for the next 24 hours with a slight chance of increased activity from this source. The position of NOAA 13395 on 10-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is approximately: N13W8, (126", 111") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has diminished since the last message and NOAA 13386 has moved fully beyond the northwest limb. Scattered C-class events have occurred in the last 24 hours with the largest being a C8.8 from NOAA 13394 at 17:49 UT yesterday. Also, NOAA 13387 has been the source of moderate C-class flares. At this time we are ending the Major Flare Watch campaign. The target region will remain around NOAA 13387 as it transits the northwest limb, with the possibility of isolated C-class events in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13387 on 9-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is: N18W91, (899",292") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

MM#003 Major Flare Watch
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 08 Aug '23

08 Aug '23

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity remains at a high level since the last message as NOAA 13386 produced a partially occulted X1.5 flare at 20:30 UT yesterday. Moreover, NOAA 13387, a beta type region, has been the site of numerous M- and C-class flares in the last 24 hours, with the largest being an M3.6 at 09:20 UT today. NOAA 13386 has passed further beyond the northwest limb and will remain the target region. The Major Flare Watch campaign will continue for a further 24 hours due to a slight chance of another partially occulted >M5.0 event. The position of NOAA 13386 on 08-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is approximately: N12W90, (925", 195") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

MM#003 Major Flare Watch
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 07 Aug '23

07 Aug '23

Dear Collaborators, Solar activity had been moderately high since the last message, although NOAA 13386 is now beyond the northwest limb. This region produced an M5.5 flare at 18:20 UT yesterday as well as a partially occulted M2.4 at 04:29 UT today. It remains classified as a beta-delta region and will continue to be the default target. The Major Flare Watch campaign will continue for a further 24-hours due to slight chance of another partially occulted >M5.0 event. The position of NOAA 13386 on 7-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is: N11W91, (928",181") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
