Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has grown to a moderate level. The target region NOAA 13961 was the source of most flares since the last message, with the largest magnitude being an M2.7 flare at 20:48 UT yesterday. 13961 retained a beta-gamma/E-type sunspot group as it rotated toward the South West limb, with emerging new negative fluxes in its following portion. Today the target shall remain with NOAA 13961. Further C-class activity is expected, with a chance for another low-M flare in the following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 13961 on 25-Jan-2025 at 12:30 UT is:
S10W69 (897", -135")
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
