Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased to a moderate level since the last message. The target region has now been numbered as NOAA 13713 (S13E59, beta/D-type) and produced the largest event during the period - an M3.2 flare at 16:34 UT today. This region and a nearby region NOAA 13712 (S24E43, beta/D-type) also produced several C-class flares in the period. The default target will remain as NOAA 13713 due to the continued flux emergence in its intermediate portion. If possible, please also include the nearby region 13712 in the field of view, which is showing significant magnetic flux emergence as well. Please note that NOAA 13711 (S09E03, beta/B-type) also produced an M1.2 flare in the period. Further C-class activity is expected, with a good chance for additional low M-class flares.
The position of NOAA 13713 on 13-Jun-2024 at 15:30 UT is:
S13E59 (-790",-220")
