Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a very low level. The target region has now rotated significantly onto the visible disk and is designated as NOAA 12776. This region is currently classed as an alpha/A-type sunspot group, but appears to have developed a spot within its trailing polarity flux (making it a beta/B-type). NOAA 12776 has continued to produce low-level activity over the past 24 hours, the largest event being a B1.4 flare on 15-Oct-2020 at 05:15 UT. More low B-class flares are probable over the following 24-hour period.
The position of NOAA 12776 on 15-Oct-2020 at 14:30 UT is:
S13E60 , ( -813", -263" )
