Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has decreased slightly since the last message. The largest 
event during the period was an M2.2 flare at 19:28 UT yesterday from 
NOAA 14362 (S17W27; beta/C-type). This region also produced an M1.8 
flare and a few C-class flares during the period. The target region NOAA 
14366 (N14W24) produced three ~M2 flares and several C-class flares. 
14366 remains a beta-gamma-delta/F-type sunspot group with an area of 
1100 µh, and is undergoing significant flux emergence in its trailing and 
central portions. Today, the Major Flare Watch will continue to focus on 
NOAA 14366. Low M-class activity is expected, with a chance of an 
isolated >M5 flare within the next 24 hours.

The position of NOAA 14366 on 6-Feb-2026 08:30 UT is:

N14W24 (385",330")
