Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has decreased slightly since the last message. NOAA 
14246 (N22W63) remains in a beta-gamma-delta configuration and 
is still the most flare-productive region on the visible disk. It produced 
a number of C-class flares and four low-M-class flares during the 
period, including the largest event, an M2.7 at 21:55 UT yesterday 
(see the SSW Latest Events entry). We are maintaining the Major 
Flare Watch on 14246 for another 24 hours. Additional C-class and 
low-M-class activity is expected, with a chance of a major flare (≥M5) 
in the next 24 hours.

The position of NOAA 14246 on 16-October-2025 at 11:30 UT is:

N22W63, (796",318")
