Solar activity has been at a low-to-moderate level since the last
message. The largest event in the period was an M1.2 flare started at
13:56 UT today(10/10) from the target region, NOAA 14549. This region
also produced a C7.9 flare at 4:35 UT today and several low-C class
flares, while a C4.2 flare at 7:42 UT today was from behind the
Northwest limb associated with an eruptive event from NOAA 14547.
A group of leading sunspots of NOAA 14549 is showing a sign of decay
but maintains a delta configuration and relative motion of sunspots.
Today NOAA 14549 continues to be the target of the ongoing Major Flare
Watch campaign. Additional C to low-M class flares are expected with
a chance of an event larger than M5.
The position of the target in NOAA 14549 on 10-October-2026 at
15:30 UT is: N08W52 (758", 76").
