MM#003 Major Flare Watch

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

At this time we are implementing Max Millennium coordinated
observing plan #003 (Region Likely To Produce A Major Flare).
NOAA 1283 switched into rapid growth phase developing a
complex magnetic delta configuration.  1283 was the source
of a major M5.3 flare at 01:50 UT today. A fast Earth-directed
CME was associated with the flare.  It is possible that
1283 will produce another event =>M5 in the next few days.

The position of NOAA 1283 on September 06 at 15:30 UT is:
N14W13 (Solar X = 208", Solar Y = 115")

See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and

for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Regards,

Bill Marquette (Helio Research)
