Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continued to be at a low level since the last message. The largest event in the period was a C3.9 flare at 12:18 UT today (7/14) from the region behind the Southeast limb. The region rotated from the Southeast limb yesterday was assigned the number as NOAA 14489, but the flare activity of this region has somewhat settled for the last 12 hours.
The target region, NOAA 14482 produced a C1.5 flare at 9:49 UT today, which is the second largest event in the period. The EUV loops emanated from its sunspot are persistently connected with the nearby plage regions and with NOAA 14487, a Northern neighboring region. Today we will continue to observe the umbra of NOAA 14482, expecting additional C class events.
The position of the target in NOAA 14482 on 14-July-2026 at 15:30 UT is: S09W52 (738", -192").
