Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a high level. The largest event in the period was an M4.7 flare at 11:54 UT yesterday from the target region NOAA 13536, which also produced over ten C-class flares and has now developed into a beta-delta region. The Major Flare Watch will continue for this region due to its high current helicity and magnetic complexity. More C-class activities are expected, with a good chance of additional M-class flares. The position of NOAA 13536 on 2-Jan-2024 at 08:30 UT is: N06E58, (-824",129") 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.
