Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a low level. The target region near the North East limb has rotated on disk but was flare quiet since the last message. It remained unnumbered at the start of the UT day, but appears to have a small sunspot in its leading polarity flux and an overall beta magnetic configuration. NOAA 13463 (an alpha/A-type sunspot group) was the most flare-productive region in the period with two C-class flares including the largest magnitude flare - a C2.2 on 17-Oct-2023 at 04:27 UT. NOAA 13463 becomes the target. C-class flares are probable in the following 24-hour period. The position of NOAA 13463 on 17-Oct-2023 at 18:00 UT is: S17W40 , ( 592", -351" ) 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)
