Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has reduced to a low level since the last message. Yesterday's target, the Southeastern limb region, was assigned a number as NOAA 14379. However, the flare activity from this region has diminished since the M class events yesterday, only a few low-C class flares were produced including a C1.9 at 23:56 UT yesterday. The region from the Northeastern limb, now designated as NOAA 14378 remains flare-quiet in the past 24 hours.
Today we will continue to observe NOAA 14379, the area close to the Southeastern limb, because of the flare history since yesterday. Additional C class events are expected.
The position of the target in NOAA 14379 on 26-February-2026 at 17:00 UT is: S20E81 (-895", -324").
