Dear Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is low-to-moderate. Target region NOAA 13243 has now rotated fully out of view over the North West limb. Several spotted regions were the source of C-class activity since the last message, but NOAA 13242 (classed as a beta-delta/E-type sunspot group) produced the largest magnitude flare - an M1.2 on 8-Mar-2023 at 09:53 UT. At this point the MM#003 Major Flare Watch comes to an end. More C-class flares are expected in the following 24-hour period, with a chance for another low M-class. The position of NOAA 13242 on 8-Mar-2023 at 20:00 UT is: N10W13 , ( 216", 285" ) 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. Regards, Shaun Bloomfield (Northumbria University)
