Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity was at a moderate level in the past 24 hours. The largest event was an M1.1 flare at 15:09 UT today produced by NOAA 13719 (S12E56) that has a beta/C-type configuration. 13719 and some other regions, 13716 (N10W44, beta-gamma/ D-type) and 13720 (S04E65, beta/D-type), also produced a few C-class flares. The target region(s) 13712 (and 13713) only produced two C-class flares during the period. Both 13712 and 13713 (S15W39) have a beta-gamma-delta/E-type configuration. Today we continue to watch 13712 and also 13713 if possible. C-class activities are expected with a chance of low M-class flare in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 13712 on June 20 at 19:30 UT is: S24W50 (662", -401") 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.
