Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at a low level. The largest event since the last message was a C3.1 flare at ~09:50 UT today from a quiet-Sun region (between NOAA 13252 and 13246) in the northern hemisphere due to a filament eruption. The target region NOAA 13245 has been stable, maintaining a beta/C-type sunspot group. Only C-class activities are likely in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13245 on March 13 at 12:30 UT
S23W51 (692", -304")
