Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity remains low, with GOES soft X-ray flux around C2. More than ten low C-class flares have been produced since the last message, the largest being a C2.3 flare from NOAA 14082 (S11E42), which has developed into a beta–gamma configuration. The target region NOAA 14079 (N08W19) increased in size to 1230 μh and in complexity to a beta–gamma–delta classification, producing three low C-class flares in the period. NOAA 14079 shall remain the target region, and further C-class activity is expected over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 14079 on 6-May-2025 at 11:30 UT is:
N08W19 (307",188")
