Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity has remained at a low level. NOAA region 12205 has continued
to show signs of decay with further decreasing in area and number of spots.
This region remains classified as a beta-gamma-delta/D-type sunspot group,
but has decreased in McIntosh complexity rank from Dkc to Dac. NOAA 12205
has remained the most active spot group since the last message with having
produced four C-class events. Yesterday's target, the return of the region
previously designated as NOAA 12192, has rotated a small leading spot over
the South East limb. Large scale loops and bright EUV emission are visible,
but the majority of the region remains beyond the limb so classification of
its magnetic complexity is not yet possible. The MM#003 Major Flare Watch
will continue for another 24 hours as this region rotates over the limb.

The approximate position of this region on 12-Nov-2014 at 23:30 UT is:

S11E90, ( -951”, 185” )
