Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has slightly increased since the last message. The largest event during the period was a C6.8 flare at 10:21 UT today from the target region NOAA 14172 (N09W66, beta-gamma/D-type). This region also produced eight additional low C-class flares during the period. NOAA 14172 shall remain the target region today, with further C-class activity likely and a slight chance of a low M-class flare in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14172 on 15-Aug-2025 at 11:30 UT is:
N09W66 (856",103")
