Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased slightly due to multiple low-C flares from several regions. The most productive region over the North East limb (unnumbered yet) was the source of 6 low-C and 7 high-B flares, including the largest one that was a C2.6 at 00:38 today. The target shall switch to this limb region due to its current level of flaring, but if possible, please also include a spotless region (N16E59) in your field of view, which produced the largest event being a C4.2 flare at 23:49 on 24-Oct-2023. Yesterday’s target NOAA 13468 was flare-quiet. Besides, another unnumbered region (S13E88) and NOAA 13469 also produced a few low-C flares. Further C-class activities are likely from various regions with a slight chance of a low M-class flare in the next 24-hour period.
The approximate position of the target on 25-Oct-2023 at 11:30 UT is:
N14E88 (-900", 250")
