MM#003 Major Flare Watch



Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity remains at a high level. NOAA 14479 produced numerous flares in the last 24 hours, the largest being an M5.3 at 17:51 UT yesterday. This region has passed beyond the northwestern limb, however it may still provide further >=M class activity from its occulted position. NOAA 14482 has not produced any significant further activity since the X-class event on 04/07/26, however this region still shows significant emerging flux and should be monitored closely. The Major Flare Watch will remain active for what may be a final 24 hours while we have the potential for further significant occulted emission from NOAA 14479 and further activity from NOAA 14482 (S08E55) . 

The position of NOAA 14479 on 06-July-2026 at 11:30 UT is:

N16W91, (906", 260")
