Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased to a moderate level since the last message. The target region NOAA 14566 (beta-gamma-delta/ F-type) produced the largest event of the period, an M3.5 flare at 18:21 UT yesterday, along with four C-class flares. Its sunspot area has increased significantly. Today the target will remain at NOAA 14566, but please also pay attention to a newly numbered region, NOAA 14568, which was the source of seven low to mid C-class flares. Further C- to low M-class activity is expected in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14566 on 6-Nov-2026 at 12:30 UT is: S06E21 (-346",-161")
