Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased since the last message with the near-spotless region NOAA 13017 producing an M5.6 flare at 07:00 UT today. NOAA 13014 was also the source of an M1.5 flare at 10:00 UT, and is now classified as a beta-gamma-delta region with a sunspot area of almost 1000uH. At this time we are issuing a Major Flare Watch with NOAA 13014 as the target region. Further C-level activity likely with chance of a >M5 flare in the next 24 hours. Also include NOAA 13017 in your field of view if possible. The position of NOAA 13014 on 19-May-2022 at 11:30 UT is: N21E10, ( -154", 374" ) 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.
