Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has remained low. The largest event since the last message was a C6.3 flare at 10:12 UT today from NOAA 14351 (S04W28), which also produced three additional ~C2 flares during the period. This region has been classified as a beta-delta configuration, but its sunspot area and number of spots have begun to decrease. The target region NOAA 14353 (N18W23) has been flare-quiet during the period but has developed into a beta-delta configuration. Today, we will continue to observe NOAA 14353. Additional C-class activity is expected over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14353 on 25-Jan-2026 12:30 UT is:
N18W23 (363",382")
