Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 12158 has remained quiescent since the M4.6 flare yesterday.
However, the region retains its beta-gamma-delta configuration and is
currently undergoing new flux emergence which is forming an unusual
negative polarity halo around the positive leader spot. This emergence
is also coincident with some bright H-alpha emission indicating
possible sheering. Major Flare Watch shall remain in effect for a
further 24 hours due to increased likelihood of an M5 flare or
greater.
The position of NOAA 12158 on 10-Sep-2014 at 13:18 UT is:
N15E06, ( -96", 129" )
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and

for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
