Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a very low level. High-lying loops of the target
region are still only visible above the SE limb. This is likely to be
the return of the region previously numbered as NOAA 12682 (also NOAA
12673) that is approximately 10 degrees behind the limb. This region
produced the only flare since the last message, a B2.4 on 18-Oct-2017
at 08:18 UT that would have been significantly higher magnitude if it
weren’t for occultation by the limb. B-class flares are possible over
the following 24-hour period.

The approximate position of this region on 18-Oct-2017 at 22:30 UT is:

S10E90, ( -948", -166" )
