Solar Activity Report: August 24 - 30, 2026

Solar activity varied from very low to medium levels during the reporting period. Seven M‑class flares were recorded during the first three days, all originating from active region14513, followed by a gradual decline to low activity. Peak activity occurred between midday August24 and midday August26, including the strongest event of the week - an M6.9 flare on August25. In addition, several medium-to-high intensity flares were produced during this period. From August27 onward, the Sun remained quiet, producing only a few low‑intensity C‑class flares through August30.

Far side helioseismic maps reveal several active regions on the far hemisphere. While most exhibit a low likelihood of appearing on the visible disk, an active region(14507 from the previous Carrington rotation) has a moderate probability of rotating onto the front side. Provided it does not decay, it is expected to return to the Earth‑facing hemisphere on September4.
