MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Solar flare activity remains at an extremely low level.
The last reported event was five days ago. The current
visible solar disk is spotless. The target region NOAA 2724
is slowly decaying. 2724 has a small active filament located
along its main magnetic inversion line. If possible, include
NOAA 2725 (S09W10) within F-O-V. There is a slight
chance of a minor B-class event in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2724 on October 19 at 10:00 UT is:
S09W24 (Solar X = 166", Solar Y = -242")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Solar flare activity continues at an extremely low level.
Target region NOAA 2724 and NOAA 2725 (S09W01)
are mostly unchanged. 2725 is currently displaying
a tiny sunspot pore. If possible, include 2725 within
F-O-V. A minor B-class event is possible in the
next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2724 on October 18 at 09:00 UT is:
S09W10 (Solar X = 166", Solar Y = -243")

MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
Solar flare activity continues at an extremely low level.
A single tiny sunspot pore in NOAA 2725 (S10E08)
is the only sunspot currently on the visible solar disk.
The target region, NOAA 2724, is slowly decaying.
If possible, include 2725 within the F-O-V. A minor
B-class event is possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2724 on October 17 at 17:00 UT is:
S09W03 (Solar X = 050", Solar Y = -245")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is extremely low. The visible solar disk
is currently spotless. Target plage NOAA 2724 continues
to slowly decay. An isolated B-class event is still possible
in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2724 on October 16 at 09:30 UT is:
S08E15 (Solar X = -248", Solar Y = -227")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is very low and is expected to continue
at a very low level. Target region NOAA 2724 is slowly
decaying and will soon become a spotless plage.
There is a slight chance of a B-class event in the next
24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2724 on October 15 at 09:30 UT is:
S09E28 (Solar X = -454", Solar Y = -087")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2724 is mostly unchanged and was
quiescent during the past 24 hours. NOAA 2725 (S08E57)
developed a small trailing polarity sunspot becoming a
B-type/beta region today. Another B-class event is possible in
the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2724 on October 14 at 06:00 UT is:
S09E44 (Solar X = -662", Solar Y = -221")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2724 produced a B2.3 event at
10/13/13:34 UT. 2724 is maintaining its small leading
polarity alpha sunspot but the following region's tiny
leading polarity alpha spot is decaying rapidly. 2724
has weak non-spot, mixed plage polarities and currently
has an active filament. New region, NOAA 2725 (S09E70)
rotated over the east limb yesterday displaying a single
leading polarity alpha sunspot. Additional B-class events
possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2724 on October 13 at 07:45 UT is:
S10E56 (Solar X = -787", Solar Y = -222")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The target region, now numbered NOAA 2724, was the
source of a B2.1 event at 10/12/01:50 UT and a B7.1
event at 10/12/14:08 UT. 2724 appears to be two
separate decaying active regions that have merged with
weak mixed polarity plage fields. Additional B-class events
possible with a slight chance of an isolated C-class event
in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2724 on October 12 at 07:00 UT is:
S07E68 (Solar X = -886", Solar Y = -155")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The southeastern limb target region's single leading
sunspot has completed east limb passage but the
trailing portion of the region is still too close to the limb
to ascertain it's magnetic configuration. The region
has been quiescent since the B1.7 event yesterday.
B-class event activity is possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of the target region on October 11 at 06:15 UT is:
S07E80 (Solar X = -940", Solar Y = -134")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The target filament has disappeared and reappeared
in some portions and has also faded somewhat. The
target will switch to a new active region located just
beyond the southeastern limb. This new region was the
source of a limb occulted B1.7 event at 10/10/08:22 UT.
Additional minor events are possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of the target region on October 10 at 08:30 UT is:
S07E89 (Solar X = -954", Solar Y = -118")
