Description:
MM#009 Default Target Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2026 10:03:12 -0700 Dear Collaborators, Solar activity has slightly increased since the last message, but still at a low level. The largest event was a C9.6 flare at 3:34 UT today (1/14) from the region being rotated from the Northeast limb. This region is connected with the target region in the Southern hemisphere through the trans-equatorial loops, and is producing a few low-C class flares after the C9.6 envent. The target region has completed the Southeast limb passage and its sunspots have come into earth's view. Although it is still too close to the limb to figure out the size and magnetic configuration, it appears to be formed by multiple spots with the total area being larger than that of NOAA 14336. Currently this region and the region from the Northeastern limb, both of which are yet unnumbered, are alternatively producing C class flares.
