Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has continued at a moderate level since the last message. NOAA 13590 produced a significant number of flares, the largest being and M4.5 at 06:21 UT today. NOAA 13590 has retained its beta-gamma-delta configuration and has increased in area to 1150 μh. This region still shows signs of significant flux and dynamic behaviour. The Major Flare Watch will continue with NOAA 13590 as the target region, due to the sustained activity and continual growth of this region. Further >M5 possible is likely over the next 24-48 hours .
The position of NOAA 13590 on 24-Feb-2024 at 12:30 UT is:
N18E06, (-96",412")
