Solar activity remains low since the last message. The largest event
in the period was a C3.3 flare at 8:31 UT today (7/15) produced by
NOAA 14489. There were two other C class events (C1.2 at 2:38 UT
and C1.1 at 4:37 UT), both came from behind the limb. The former was
an eruptive event from NOAA 14485 now located behind the SouthWest
limb, while the latter was from the region that produced a C3.9 flare
yesterday, being still behind the SouthEast limb. The target region
NOAA 14482 reduced its sunspot area, only produced a B class event.
Today, we will switch the target to NOAA 14489, at the Northeast side
of the sunspot, where the C3.3 flare initiated.
The position of the target in NOAA 14489 on 15-July-2026 at
15:00 UT is: S06E45 (-674", -151").
