Dear Collaborators,
The largest event since the last message was a C4.9 flare at 10/25/18:52 UT produced by a newly numbered region NOAA 13133 that has a beta/C-type configuration. 13133 also produced a C3.3 flare at 10/25/15:04 UT. The Target region NOAA 13126 remains its beta/D-type sunspot group and only produced three ~B7 flares of the period. We will watch this region for a further 24 hours until it rotates over the west limb. Additional C-class flares are probable in the next 24-hour period.
The approximate position of NOAA 13126 on October 26 at 08:00 UT is:
S08W89 (900", -190")
