Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased significantly since the last message due to a new active region currently behind the northeast limb. The region has produced several high C-class flares over the past few hours as well as an M1.3 flare at 02:40 UT today. While the magnetic configuration is uncertain at this time, this shall be the new target region. Further C-level activity is expected with chance for an additional M-class activity as the region rotates into view.
The approximate position of the target region on 26-Oct-2021 at 07:30 UT is:
N14E85, ( -933", 226" )
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
