Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at very low levels, with the GOES X-ray flux
remaining constant around the A3 level. The new target region shall be
small plage region rotating on to the eastern limb. No increase in
activity is expected at this time.
The approximate position of the target region on 20-Feb-2018 at 16:30 UT is:
N05E73, ( -926", 118" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The visible solar disk remains spotless. There was a isolated,
long-duration B1.1 flare associated with an emerging flux region in
the southeast quadrant at 04:58 UT today. The region may continue to
develop over the next 24 hours and shall therefore be the new target
region. However no significant increase in activity is expected at
this time.
The approximate position of the target region on 19-Feb-2018 at 12:30 UT is:
S05E23, ( -377", 25" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The visible solar disk is now spotless and global X-ray flux is now at
the mid-A-level. NOAA 12699 has rotated over the western limb but its
looptops are still visible. It shall remain the target region for an
additional 24 hours although no change in activity is expected at this
time.
The position of NOAA 12699 on 18-Feb-2018 at 14:30 UT is:
S08W91, ( 960", -136" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at very low levels. NOAA 12699 is now on the
western limb and has remained quiescent since the last message. It
shall be the target region for a further 24 hours although no
significant increase in activity is expected before west limb passage.
The position of NOAA 12699 on 17-Feb-2018 at 16:30 UT is:
S08W91, ( 960", -136" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at low levels. The largest event since the last
message was a B3.4 flare from NOAA 12699 at 04:37 UT today. The region
is now on the western limb and has continued to show signs of decay.
It shall remain the target region for a further 24 hours with chance
for another isolated low-level event before west limb passage.
The position of NOAA 12699 on 16-Feb-2018 at 14:30 UT is:
S08W77, ( 937", -108" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at low levels. NOAA 12699 only managed to
produce a few B1 flares since the last message. The region continues
to decay as it approaches the western limb. It shall remain the target
region with only isolated low-level events expected over the next 24
hours.
The position of NOAA 12699 on 15-Feb-2018 at 14:30 UT is:
S08W63, ( 858", -82" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has returned to low levels with no events of note since
the last message. NOAA 12699 continues to decay as it approaches the
western limb but retains its beta configuration. It shall remain the
target region but with no significant increase in activity expected
over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12699 on 14-Feb-2018 at 14:30 UT is:
S07W53, ( 771", -48" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has returned to background levels after the long
duration C1.5 flare yesterday. The target region NOAA 12699 retains
its beta configuration but is showing signs of decay in its trailing
portion. B-level events still likely over the next 24 hours with
slight chance of an additional isolated C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 12699 on 13-Feb-2018 at 12:30 UT is:
S07W36, ( 568", -25" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 12699 was the source of a long-duration (~12h) C1.5 flare at
00:15 UT today, which had an associated CME. The region remains stable
in terms of size and complexity (beta/D-type) as it passes the central
meridian. Further B-level activity likely with chance for another
isolated C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 12699 on 12-Feb-2018 at 14:30 UT is:
S07W23, ( 378", -13" )

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 2699 (D-type/beta) has decayed somewhat in
the past 24 hours. 2699 was the source of numerous
B-class events. The largest was a B8.3 at 02/11/10:02 UT.
B-class events probable, an isolated C-class event possible
with only a slight chance of an isolated M-class event
in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2699 on February 11 at 16:00 UT is:
S07W08 (Solar X = 135", Solar Y = -007")
