Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a low level. Target region NOAA 13245 decayed since the last message, decreasing in magnetic complexity to now be classified as a beta/C-type sunspot group. NOAA 13245 continued to be the most flare-productive region on disk being the source of multiple C-class flares, including the largest flare (a C4.9 flare on 11-Mar-2023 at 00:55 UT). More C-class flares are expected in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13245 on 11-Mar-2023 at 17:00 UT is: S23W27 , ( 408", -276" ) 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.
