Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has remained at an intermediate level since the last message. NOAA 13615 produced over 20 flares in the last 24 hours, the largest being an M1.9 at 12:55 UT yesterday. NOAA 13615 has grown slightly since the last message and now has an area of 1140 μh. This region remains classified as a beta-gamma-delta. NOAA 13615 continues to show dynamic sunspot behaviour as well as signs of significant flux. The Major Flare Watch will continue as NOAA 13615 begins its approach of the southwest limb. Further C- and M-class activity is likely, with a chance for an isolated >M5 event in the next 24-48 hours.
The position of NOAA 13615 on 27-Mar-2024 at 12:30 UT is:
S13W48, (698",-141")
