Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity is at low-to-moderate levels. NOAA 11696 produced no flares
in the past 24 hours. This region has increased in number of spots, while
maintaining spot area and a beta-gamma/E-type sunspot group classification
by NOAA. However, mixed-polarity magnetic flux in the intermediate portion
of NOAA 11696 has decreased in magnitude over the past 12 hours. NOAA 11698
has grown in both spot area and number of spots as it approaches the limb,
and appears quite bright in chromospheric UV emission. This region has been
reclassified by NOAA as a beta/E-type sunspot group, and has continued to
produce low C-class events (the largest being a C2.8 flare on 18-Mar-2013
at 03:15 UT). Further low C-class activity is likely, with a small chance
for an isolated high C-/low M-class event.

The position of NOAA 11698 on 18-Mar-2013 at 14:00 UT is:

S19W80, ( 897", -291" )
