Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has declined to a low level after the X1.9 event yesterday(12/1). The source region of the X class flare, which is the target of the current Major Flare Watch campaign, was numbered NOAA 14299, classified as a beta-gamma/D-type, but has been in a dormant state after the X class event.
The largest event in the past 24 hours was a C4.8 flare at 21:06 UT yesterday from the middle portion of NOAA 14294. This region maintains the size over 1400 millionths and a beta-gamma-delta magnetic configuration, even after the westernmost area of this region was re-classified as an alpha-type sunspot with a new number, NOAA 14298. NOAA 14298, 14294 and their eastern adjacent region NOAA 14296 forms a huge active region group with a total size over 2000 millionths. More than 10 low-to-mid C class flares were reported from this active region group, however none of them has not exceeded a high-C level.
Today, we will continue the Major Flare Watch campaign for another 24 hours on NOAA 14299, expecting additional activities including an event larger than M5.
The position of the target in NOAA 14299 on 2-December-2025 at 17:00 UT is: N22E61 (-787", 375").
