Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased to a moderate level since the last message. The largest event during the period was an M3.5 flare from NOAA 14404 (N13W28, beta/C-type). The target region, NOAA 14409 (N02E06), produced more than ten C-class flares and two M1.3 flares during the period. 14409 has increased in magnetic complexity and is now classified as beta-gamma/D-type. Today, NOAA 14409 will remain the target region. Additional C-class flares are expected, with a chance of additional low-M flares over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14409 on 3-Apr-2026 at 11:30 UT is:
N02E06 (-100",140")
