Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues to be low but has slightly increased from the last message. The largest event in the past 24 hours is a C8.1 flare from the Southwest limb at the location of NOAA 14145. Yesterday's target, NOAA 14150 did not produce flares.
A few of low-C class flares were reported from the yet-unnumbered region from the East limb at the latitude of S08 degree. However, its sunspot and magnetic configuration are still not clear. NOAA 14149, passing the central meridian today was reclassified as a beta type region (from a beta-gamma type) but started to produce 3 low-C class flares from the area of its leading (positive polarity) sunspot after a few days of absence. Today, we will switch the default target to NOAA 14149, at the location of the leading sunspot.
The position of the target in NOAA 14149 on 24-July-2025 at 15:30 UT is: N16E04 (-69", 182").
