Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has grown to an intermediate level since the
last message. The largest event was a C8.3 flare at 17:23 UT
yesterday from NOAA 14325. This region also produced three
low-C flares and has retained a beta-gamma/E-type magnetic
configuration, with the sunspot area of 300 μh. Yesterday’s
target NOAA 14324 (N24W33, beta/D-type) was only the
source of three low-C flares with a significant decay in its
spot area to 70 μh. Today, we will end the Major Flare Watch
campaign, and the default target switch back to NOAA 14325
due to its high magnetic complexity and large spot area. Further
C-class activity is probable in the coming 24 hours.
