Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity is increasing due to the activities from the region
located behind the Southeast limb, with the largest being a C8.9
eruptive flare at 20:46 UT yesterday (a link to the movie of this
event shown below). This region appears to be the source of the C3.9
flare on 7/14, as well as 3 low-to-mid C class flares reported in the
last 24 hours. Yesterday's target, NOAA 14489 produced a C1.5 flare
at 18:03 UT yesterday (7/15), but has quietened since then.

Today, we will switch the target to the Southeast limb region yet
unnumbered to monitor the additional flares of a high-C class.

The position of the target 16-July-2026 at 15:00 UT is:
S09E83 (-923", -171").
