Solar activity has returned to a low level since the last message.
The largest event was a C8.2 flare at 2:43 UT today(2/22) from an
unnumbered region newly emerged in the Northwest quadrant and is
approaching the limb. NOAA 13990, a sigmoid region produced 5 C
class events including a C8.0 at 16:01 UT on 2/21, but significantly
reduced in size and is undergoing a West limb passage.
Yesterday's target, now designated as NOAA 14000, produced 3 C
class flares with the largest being a C7.5 at 3:17 UT today. All of these
occurred from the area of following (negative) polarity. We will continue
to observe this region for another 24 hours, expecting additional C to
low-M class events.
