MM#003 Major Flare Watch

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Target region NOAA 1515 was the source of an X1.1 event at
07/06/23:08 UT.  1515 is maintaining bright dynamic H-alpha
plage and its F-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group.  Another
major flare event =/>M5 is possible in the next 24 hour period.
The bright plage located in the southeastern quadrant
(S17E66, -826", -299" at 15:00 UT) appears to have a complex
E-type/beta-gamma sunspot group.  This region is also capable
of producing an event =/>M5 but so far has been less flare
productive than NOAA 1515.  Both regions are excellent
targets for large events in the next 24 to 48 hours.

The position of NOAA 1515 on July 07 at 15:00 UT is:
S18W59 (Solar X = 770", Solar Y = -320")
