Dear Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is low. Target region NOAA 13341 decayed slightly in terms of sunspot area over the past 24 hours, but it has remained a beta/C-type sunspot group classification. Both NOAA 13337 (a beta/C-type group) and NOAA 13340 (a beta/E-type group) produced C-class flares in the period, but NOAA 13341 was again the source of the largest magnitude flare - a C8.5 on 25-Jun-2023 at 12:03 UT. At this point we terminate the MM#003 Major Flare Watch, although NOAA 13341 remains the default target. More C-class activity is expected over the following 24-hour period, with a chance for an isolated M-class flare.
The position of NOAA 13341 on 25-Jun-2023 at 18:00 UT is:
S16W01 , ( 14", -296" )
