Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity continues to be extremely low. NOAA 12626
has decreased slightly in spot area, but increased in classification
to a beta/C-type sunspot group. Again, no flares have occurred since
the last message. No significant activity is expected in the next 24
hours.
The position of NOAA 12626 on 18-Jan-2017 at 19:30 UT is:
N08E05, ( -88", 219" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is extremely low. NOAA 12626 has decayed slightly in
spot area, but remains classified as an alpha/H-type sunspot group.
No flares have been observed since the last message. Low B-class may
be possible over the following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12626 on 17-Jan-2017 at 19:30 UT is:
N08E18, ( -303", 213" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is very low. Yesterday's target NOAA 12625
has decayed somewhat to an alpha/H-type sunspot group. The new target
will be NOAA 12626 that is also designated as an alpha/A-type sunspot
group, but with larger spot area. Both regions have produced a single
low B-class flare since the last message. Further low B-class flares
may be possible in the next 24-hour period.
The position of this NOAA 12626 on 16-Jan-2017 at 23:00 UT is:
N09E29, ( -473", 222" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The GOES X-ray flux has been flat at the ~A7 background
level. The target region NOAA 12625 and the other sunspot
region NOAA 12626 (N08E46) on the visible disk are mostly
unchanged. Target 12625 remains a beta/C-type sunspot
group. It is displaying some ephemeral jets on the edge of the
region. If possible, also include 12626 within the field-of-view.
Only minor activities are expected in the following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12625 on January 15 at 14:30 UT is:
N03E36 (-574", 114")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at very low levels. There are currently
two sunspot regions on the visible disk, the target region
NOAA 12625 and its neighbour NOAA 12626 (N08E58). 12626
having an Alpha/H-type classification produced the largest event
(a B2.1 at 07:08 UT today) since the last message. The target
region NOAA 12625 has been designated as a beta/C-type
configuration increasing in sunspot area and number of spots
slightly. If possible, also include the neighbour region 12626 within
the field-of-view. B-class activities are possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12625 on January 14 at 14:30 UT is:
N03E49 (-737", 101")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has been at extremely low with the X-ray flux
flat at the ~A6 level since the C3.8 flare. The target sunspot
region has been designated as NOAA 12625, with an Alpha/
H-type classification. 12625 is rotating onto the visible disk.
It shows some dynamic surges in H-alpha images. B-class
activities are likely with a chance of low C-class events.
The position of NOAA 12625 on January 13 at 14:30 UT is:
N03E63 (-869", 85")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The largest solar X-ray event in the previous 24 hours was
a C3.8 at 15:54 UT today (the first C-class flare in 2017; also
associated with a non-Earth-directed CME) produced by a
returning region near the northeast limb. Today we will watch
this limb region. It seems to have a tiny pore. B-class activities
are probable with a chance of another C-class event in the
next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target on January 12 at 20:30 UT is:
N5E88 (-950", 100")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The visible solar disk remains spotless. The target plage
region produced the largest event in the past 24 hours, a
B5.4 at 18:03 UT yesterday. The target region is almost
rotating over the west limb with some loops still visible
above the limb. We will watch this region for a further 24
hours. Occulted B-class activities are likely in the next 24
hour period.
The approximate position of the target on January 11 at 14:30 UT is:
N12W89 (950", 205")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased slightly, though the visible
disk is still spotless. Numerous B-class flares (the largest
one being a B8.8 at 12:56 UT today) were produced by
an emerging flux region (EFR) near the northwest limb,
which is very close to yesterday's target plage region.
Today we will watch this EFR. Additional high-level B-class
activities are possible in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target on January 10 at 14:30 UT is:
N15W79 (900", 250")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity continues extremely low with the GOES
X-ray flux flat at the ~A6 level. The solar visible disk
remains spotless. The target plage has been quiescent
and is rotating up to the west limb. No notable activities
are expected in the next 24 hours
The approximate position of the target on January 9 at 20:30 UT is:
N16W57 (760", 300")
