Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity has increased dramatically. NOAA 12644 has produced two
mid M-class flares in the past 24 hours, with an M5.4 currently in
progress (07:50 UT). At this time we are issuing a Major Flare Watch
with NOAA 12644 as the target region. The region is approaching the
western limb and appears to be increasing in magnetic complexity.
Further intermediate level activity expected (from NOAA 12645 as
well), with chance for additional M-level activity in the next 24
hours.

The position of NOAA 12644 on 2-Apr-2017 at 07:30 UT is:

N12W56, ( 779", 257" )
