Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity was at a moderate level. The largest event over the past 24 hours was an M1.8 flare at 06:31 UT on November 7 produced by the target region NOAA 14274. 14274 was also the source of more than ten C-class flares. It remains a beta-gamma-delta/E-type configuration. Today we will continue the Major Flare Watch on this region for a further 24 hours. Please note that another region NOAA 14276 (S17E53, beta-gamma/D-type) as mentioned yesterday was also the source of a few C-class flares. Low M-class activity is expected with some chance of a major flare of above M5.0 in the following 1-2 days.
The position of NOAA 14274 on November 8 at 00:30 UT is:
N24E12 (-184", 339")
