Dear Collaborators, <br> 
The level of solar activity is high. Target region NOAA 13165 has
continued to grow in spot area and magnetic complexity since the
last message to now be designated as a beta-delta/E-type sunspot
group. This region remains the most flare-productive region with
being the source of multiple M-class events, the largest being
an M5.7 on 15-Dec-2022 at 22:20 UT. The MM#003 Major Flare Watch
continues with NOAA 13165 as its target. Further M-class activity
is expected over the next 24 hours, with a good chance for more flares &gt;= M5.
The position of NOAA 13165 on 16-Dec-2022 at 16:30 UT is: 
S19W72 , ( 877&quot;, -312&quot; )
