Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity remains elevated with twelve numbered active regions now present on the visible solar disk. NOAA 12908 remains unchanged in terms of size and complexity and continues to produce C-level activity as well as an M1.3 flare at 06:54 UT today. The new region now on the southeast limb has now been designated as NOAA 12916 and has also produced two M1 flares since the last message. NOAA 12908 shall remain the target region with further intermediate level activity expected. Also include NOAA 12907 and 12909 in your field of view if possible.

The position of NOAA 12908 on 22-Dec-2021 at 16:30 UT is:

S20W35, ( 527", -309" )
