Dear Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is moderate. Target region NOAA 13315 has shown further signs of decay since the last message, decreasing in spot area and magnetic complexity to be a beta-gamma/E-type sunspot group. In the period NOAA 13310 produced several C-class flares and two M-class flares (an M1.2 and M1.3 on 30-May-2023 at 07:54 UT and 10:15 UT, respectively) during its approach to the South West limb. NOAA 13315 has also continued to be flare active, being the source of C-class activity and an M1.5 on 30-May-2023 at 13:35 UT - the target remains as NOAA 13315. Further C-class flares are expected over the following 24-hour period, with a chance for additional low M-class flares. The position of NOAA 13315 on 30-May-2023 at 18:00 UT is: S16W44 , ( 632", -251" ) 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.
