Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

The target region, NOAA 12257, was the source of an M5.6 flare at
04:13 UT today. The region is still classified as having a
beta-gamma-delta configuration but it is too close to the western limb
to confirm this. At this time we are implementing a Major Flare Watch
campaign due to the increased possibility of another >M5 flare before
west limb passage.

The position of NOAA 12257 on 13-Jan-2015 at 10:04 UT is:

N07W74, ( 931", 138" )

See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and

for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Regards,
