MM#003 Major Flare Watch
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
At this time we are implementing Max Millennium Coordinated Observing
Plan #003 (Region Likely To Produce Major Flares). Previous target,
NOAA 1158, entered a very strong growth phase today. It now has the
potential to produce a major flare. It has developed a magnetically
complex large E-type sunspot group with a beta-gamma magnetic
classification with a possible strong delta configuration forming
within its intermediate portion. An M5 event or greater is possible
if growth continues.
The position of NOAA 1158 on February 13 at 01:30 UT is:
S21E15 (Solar X = -236", Solar Y = -244")
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and

for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
Regards,
Bill Marquette (Helio Research)
