Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at low levels. The target region NOAA 14079 is now
classified as a beta-gamma-delta region but has remained quiescent. The
region has increased in size slightly since the last message, and shows
signs of rotation in its leader spot, but only low-to-intermediate levels
of activity are expected over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14079 on 2-May-2025 at 11:30 UT is:
N08E34, ( -528", 187" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has returned to a low level. NOAA 14079 produced only a
small number of low C-class flares since the last message. This region has
now more than doubled in apparent sunspot area to 1040 μh. NOAA 10479
appears to demonstrate large closed-loop structures within the region. NOAA
14079 will remain the target region and should continue to be monitored
closely. Further C-class activity is likely in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of NOAA 14079 on 01-May-2025 at 11:30 UT is
N08E47 (-688", 179")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has remained consistent since the last message. Several
flares were produced, the largest being an M2.0 from NOAA 14079 at 07:41 UT
today. NOAA 14079 has progressed further onto the solar disk and is now
classified as a beta-gamma region with a sunspot area of 560 μh. NOAA 14079
currently appears to be relatively stable in behaviour and does not appear
to reach the criteria for a Major Flare Watch, however this region should
be monitored closely for further development. NOAA 14079 will remain the
target region, with a chance for additional isolated M-class flares in the
next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14079 on 30-April-2025 at 11:30 UT is:
N08E60 (-818", 167")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has slightly increased since the last message. Newly
numbered active region, NOAA 14079, has traversed onto the disk from the
northeastern limb and was the site of an M1.7 flare and several additional
C-class flares over the last 24 hours. Currently this region is classified
as a beta-type region but more may become apparent as this region
progresses further onto the disk. Imaging suggests a pair of large sunspots
to be within close proximity to each other that may evolve further in the
next 24-48 hours. NOAA 14079 will be the new target region, with a chance
for further isolated M-class events in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14079 on 29-April-2025 at 11:30 UT is
N08E67 (-869", 160")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at a very low level. A small number of flares were
produced in the last 24 hours, the largest being a C2.3 at 05:46 UT today
attributed to NOAA 14067. NOAA 14064 has remained quiet, producing only two
flares since the last message. This region continues to reduce in sunspot
area but retains its beta type configuration. NOAA 14064 will continue as
the target region, with minor C-class activity expected in the next 24
hours.
The position of NOAA 14064 on 28-April-2025 at 11:30 UT is
N12W79 (915", 211")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues to be at a very low level with the GOES
soft X-ray flux flat at ~C1. Only two C1 flares (C1.2 and C1.3)
were produced by NOAA 14075 (S11E27, now a plage region)
and a region near the southeast limb (S18E88). The target region
NOAA 14064 was flare quiet since the last message. It retains
a beta/D-type configuration but significantly decreases the sunspot
area and number of spots as it is rotating to the west limb. Today
we will continue to watch this region for another 24 hours. Only
C-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14064 on April 27 at 11:30 UT is:
N12W66 (852", 227")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues to be at a very low level for the past 24
hours. The largest event during the period was a C1.7 flare at
10:56 UT produced by the target region NOAA 14064. 14064 also
produced another two C1 flares and has been designated as a
beta/D-type configuration. Today we will continue to watch this
region as it seems to show some new flux emergence. Note that
another region NOAA 14073 (N12E19, beta/D-type) also produced
three C1 flares. Additional C-class activities are expected in the
next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14064 on April 26 at 15:30 UT is:
N11W54 (758", 225")

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been very low since the last message. The largest
event in the past 24 hours was a C3.0 flare at 03:57 UT today (4/25)
from an unnumbered region rotated from the Southeast limb at the
latitude of ~17 deg.
Yesterday's target, NOAA 14064, was a source of 3 C class events
occurred at the period 14-16 UT yesterday. This region is flare-
quiet since then, but maintains the brightenings of the loops
connected to the filament extending to a Southeast direction.
Today we will continue to observe NOAA 14064, at the Eastern edge
of the trailing (negative) sunspot, which is the area connecting
to the filament. Additional C class events are expected.
The position of the target in NOAA 14064 on 25-April-2025 at
16:00 UT is: N12W35 (541", 275").

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues to be low but slightly increased since the
last message. The largest event was a C3.8 flare at 00:20 UT today
(4/24) from NOAA 14064, which produced 2 more low-C class flares.
Other C class events were mainly from NOAA 14070, which increased
both in size and magnetic complexity (to a beta-gamma type), and
produced 7 low-C class flares. There was no report of flares from
the target region, NOAA 14062 in the recent 24 hours.
NOAA 14064 is undergoing new flux emergence in the West vicinity
of the trailing (negative) sunspot today. The EUV loops from this
region frequently interact with a filament located at the Southeast
of this region, and with a plage region around NOAA 14067.
Today, we will switch our target to NOAA 14064, to observe the area
of new flux emergence. Additional C class events are expected.
The position of the target in NOAA 14064 on 24-April-2025 at
15:30 UT is: N10W26 (420", 236").

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been very low since the last message. The largest
event was a C2.6 flare at 18:51 UT yesterday (4/22) from the target
region, NOAA 14062. Other low C class events were from multiple
regions including NOAA 14068, 14064, and newly emerged 14070.
Today, we will continue to observe NOAA 14062, at the North side of
the main (negative) sunspot for another 24 hours. Additional C class
events are expected.
The position of the target in NOAA 14062 on 23-April-2025 at
15:30 UT is: S01W39 (606", 34").
