Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been very low since the last message. The largest event was a C2.0 flare at 9:13 UT today(1/13) from the the Southeast limb region that produced an M3.4 flare on 1/11. The sunspots of this region are still behind the limb, but high loop system including the trans-equatorial loops connected to the Northern hemisphere is visible in the EUV wavelengths. Several high-B to low-C flares were reported from this region, while the regions on the disk only produced a C1.5 flare (by NOAA 14336) in the past 24 hours. Today, we will continue to observe the Southeast limb region expecting additional C class activities or larger.
The position of the target region on 13-January-2026 at 17:00 UT is: S11E86 (-953", -191").
