Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is low. NOAA 12217 appears to be in
decay phase, decreasing in spot area and increasing in number of
spots. This region produced no flare activity over the previous
24 hours. NOAA region 12222 has recently rotated over the South
East limb and shows an increasingly complex configuration. This
region is only classified as an alpha/H-type sunspot group, but
realistically has at least a beta-gamma magnetic complexity with
some indication of a potential delta (depending on the penumbral
connections between the leading polarity spot and its immediate
opposite polarity neighbouring spot). 12222 has been the source
of eight C-class flares since the last message, including the
largest flare of the period (a C8.2 on 27-Nov-2014 at 00:39 UT).
Further C-class activity is expected over the following 24 hour
period, with a good chance for a low-to-mid M-class event.

The position of NOAA 12222 on 27-Nov-2014 at 13:00 UT is:

S20E63, ( -815”, -343” )
