Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a low level. A new region is rotating onto the disk at
S28E75
and is showing some flux emergence and spot formation. It has been the
source
of a C-class activity (a C1.5 flare on 11-May-2013 at 12:47). Yesterday's
target
region has been designated NOAA 11745 and was the source of the largest
flare
in the previous 24 hours (a C2.2 on 11-May-2013 at 13:59) and other C-class
activity. The region is still too close to the limb for an accurate
determination of
its magnetic configuration, but minor spot emergence was visible over the
previous 6 hours. The The MM#003 Major Flare Watch will continue for the
next
24 hours, but may be called off tomorrow, pending further significant
activity and
magnetic evolution.

The position of the NOAA 11745 on 11-May-2013 at 19:00 UT is:

N11E63, ( -828", 204" )
