Dear Collaborators,
The target region NOAA 12781 produced a few B-class flares as well as three C-class flares (the largest one being a C5.7 at 05:13 UT on 11/8) in the past 24 hours. 12781 was designated as a beta-gamma/D-type configuration, decreasing its sunspot area. It has shown some magnetic flux cancelations. Additional C-class activities are expected with a slight chance of a low M-class flare in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12781 on November 8 at 04:30 UT is:
S23E13 (-201", -433")
