Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been at a moderate level since the last message. The target region NOAA 13738 produced the largest magnitude flare, an M1.4 at 02:55 UT today. It also produced five C-class flares including a C9.6. This region retains a beta-gamma/F-type configuration with increasing the sunspot area further. Note that a southeast limb region (S08E89) produced two occulted C8.0 flares. Additional C-class activities are expected with a good chance of some low M-class flares in the next 24-48 hours.
The position of NOAA 13738 on July 13 at 11:30 UT is:
S09W33 (509", -205")
