Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a low-to-moderate level. Target NOAA 13341 was again stable in terms of sunspot area and number of spots since the last message, remaining classified as a beta/C-type sunspot group. NOAA 13337 (a small beta/D-type region) produced the most flares in the period and the largest magnitude flare - an M1.1 on 24-Jun-2023 at 12:11 UT. The MM#003 Major Flare Watch will continue for a final 24 hours on NOAA 13341 (unless additional activity/growth is seen). Low M-class flares are possible in the next 24 hours, with a small chance for an isolated >M5 or X-class flare. The position of NOAA 13341 on 24-Jun-2023 at 18:00 UT is: S16E12 , ( -191", -294" ) 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.
