Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been at a moderate-to-low level in the past 24 hours. The largest event, an M2.9 flare at 17:07 UT yesterday, came from NOAA 13751 (beta-gamma/D-type, S08W77). The target region NOAA 13762 also produced two high-C flares, including a C8.4 at 00:24 UT and a C9.1 at 01:54 UT today). It has remained a beta-gamma-delta/E-type sunspot group and continued to grow slightly in the number of sunspots and spot area. Further C-class activities are expected with another low-M flare possible in the following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13762 at 11:30 UT on 25-Jul-2024 is:
S12E03 (-48", -281")
