Dear Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 3272 has completed east limb passage. 3272 is a single region with a D-type/beta sunspot group. 3272 has decayed within its intermediate portion but new spots have emerged near the large leading polarity sunspot. The region produced a few minor C-class events since the last message. The largest was a C1.4 at 04/07/06:27 UT. C-class events expected with a chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 3272 on April 07 at 14:30 UT is:
S22E70 (-837", -325")
