Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has continued at a low level since the last message. Several C-class flares were produced, the largest being a C6.6 from NOAA 13595 at 12:47 UT today. NOAA 13590 has now effectively passed beyond the solar limb. A region of significant flux in the southeast quadrant is now numbered as 13599 - this region will be monitored as it moves further onto the disk. NOAA 13595 is currently classified as a beta-gamma type region and has increased in area to 370 μh. The target region will switch to NOAA 13595 for the next 24 hours, with further C-class activity expected.
The position of NOAA 13595 on 2-Mar-2024 at 12:30 UT is:
N20W30, (456",428")
