Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a low level. Target region NOAA 13451 has now fully rotated over the North West limb. This region produced 3 low C-class flares before disappearing from Earth-view. The region on the visible disk that is the most magnetically complex is now NOAA 13460, a beta-gamma/D-type sunspot group. This region also produced 3 low C-class flares in the period and becomes the new target. More C-class flares are expected in the following 24-hour period.

The position of NOAA 13460 on 13-Oct-2023 at 18:00 UT is:

S11W41 , ( 620", -258" )

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.
