Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has been at moderate-to-low levels since the last message. The largest event was an M3.9 flare at 01:13 UT today from yesterday’s target NOAA 13615 and NOAA 13625. 13615 also produced an M3.4 flare and a few low-C flares, but it is currently rotating out of Earth-view. 13625 was a newly-emerged region with a beta/D-type sunspot group. This region was also a source of three low-C flares. At this point, we shall end the Major Flare Watch campaign and NOAA 13625 should become the new default target because 13625 is the most magnetically complex region on the disk. More C-class activities are expected, with a slight chance of another M-class flare. The position of NOAA 13625 on 1-Apr-2024 at 11:30 UT is: N12W72 (893", 231") 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, Qiao Li (Purple Mountain Observatory)
