Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has returned to a moderate level. The largest event was an M1.4 flare at 14:23 UT yesterday from NOAA 13836 (S12E65, beta-gamma/D-type). A spotless region (S16W21) near NOAA 13828 also produced a C6.9 flare at 11:29 UT today. The target region NOAA 13835 was the source of a C6.5 flare at 03:33 UT today. This region retains its beta/D-type magnetic configuration and it continues to emerge new spots. Today the target region should remain with NOAA 13835. Further C-class activities are expected, with a chance of another low-M flare in the coming 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13835 on 24-Sep-2024 at 11:30 UT is:
S25E42 (-581", -480")
