Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity had been moderately high since the last message, although NOAA 13386 is now beyond the northwest limb. This region produced an M5.5 flare at 18:20 UT yesterday as well as a partially occulted M2.4 at 04:29 UT today. It remains classified as a beta-delta region and will continue to be the default target. The Major Flare Watch campaign will continue for a further 24-hours due to slight chance of another partially occulted >M5.0 event.
The position of NOAA 13386 on 7-Aug-2023 at 11:30 UT is:
N11W91, (928",181")
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
