Dear Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is very low. Target region NOAA 12965 has now fully rotated over the North West limb. The plage region that was previously designated as NOAA 12971 has undergone some flux emergence and is consolidating flux into two small opposite-polarity spots, and was the source of mid-B-class flares since the last message. The most flare-productive region is a new spot region rotating over the South East limb that has produced several footpoint occulted B-class flares as well as the largest flare of the period (a C1.2 on 20-Mar-2022 at 18:04 UT). Further B-class activity is expected, with a good chance for mid-/high- C-class activity over the following 24-hour period. The approximate position of this region on 21-Mar-2022 at 18:00 UT is: S18E90 , ( -916", -295" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
