Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been at a very low level. There are seven regions with sunspots on the visible solar disk, but most of them have been flare quiet. The target region NOAA 13141 was the source of a C1.2 flare at 11/06/01:10 UT (the largest one of the period) plus several high B-class events. 13141 has been designated as a beta/D-type region with an increase in the sunspot area and number of spots. It is showing mixed polarities in its leading portion. Additional C-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13141 on November 6 at 08:30 UT is:
N14E58 (-797", 200")
