Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has been at a moderate level. The largest event 
over the past 24 hours was an M1.9 flare at 22:38 UT yesterday 
produced by a newly numbered region NOAA 14048 (S15E75). 
14048 also produced another two low M-class flares (M1.4 and 
M1.5) and 13 C-class flares. This region was designated as a 
beta/D-type configuration and has a highest current helicity 
compared with the other active regions. The target region 
NOAA 14046 only produced two low C-class flares during the 
period. It retains a beta/C-type configuration. Considering that 
it has a largest sunspot area of 270 uh and shows some new 
flux emergence, today we continue to watch this region with 
a Major Flare Watch campaign for another 24 hours. Further 
low M-class activities are expected from the target region and 
also from NOAA 14048, with some chance of a >M5 flare in 
the next few days.

The position of NOAA 14046 on March 30 at 04:30 UT is:

N05E54 (-775", 148")
