Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a low-to-moderate level. Target region NOAA 13421 has grown slightly in spot area since yesterday's last message, remaining classified as a beta/D-type sunspot group. NOAA 13421 continues to be the most flare-productive region, generating multiple C-class flares and two M-class flares that were the largest magnitude events in the period (an M1.2 and an M1.0 on 5-Sep-2023 at 19:33 UT and 23:21 UT, respectively). Additional C-class flares are expected over the following 24-hour period, with a good chance for further low M-class activity.

The position of NOAA 13421 on 6-Sep-2023 at 18:00 UT is:

N14W24 , ( 376", 122" )
