Solar activity has reduced to a low level since the last message.
Several high-B to low-C class flares were reported from the region
rotated from the Northeast limb in the recent 24 hours, with the
largest being a C3.2 at 04:56 UT today(10/23). A single sunspot is
visible close to the equator on the East limb. However, the flare
activities are coming from a plage region located at the North of
the sunspot, which is likely to be the remnant of NOAA 14236 that
had grown to over 300 millionths in early October.
The target region, centered at NOAA 14262 has been flare-quiet
since the last message. Today, we will switch the target to the
plage region (unnumbered) from the Northeast limb, considering the
frequent flare history in the past 24 hours. Additional C class
events are expected.
The position of the target on 23-October-2025 at 15:30 UT is:
N05E74 (-925", 68").
