Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a high level. NOAA region 11697 appears to have
finished its growth phase, having maintained spot area and number of
spots over the past 24 hours. 11697 has also retained classification
as a beta-gamma-delta/F-type sunspot group. This region was the source
of 3 M-class flares since yesterday's message, including an M5.2 flare
on 4-Feb-2014 at 03:57 UT. Further M-class activity is likely over the
next 24 hours, with a good chance for another flare above the M5 level.

The position of NOAA 11967 on 4-Feb-2014 at 14:30 UT is:

S13W20, ( 325", -121" )
