Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has continued at the C-level with events emanating from
various active regions. The largest events from the past 24 hours have
been from NOAA 12573 near the eastern limb. With NOAA 12572 now behind
the western limb, NOAA 12573 shall be the new target region. The
region is classified as having a beta configuration and appears to be
undergoing flux emergence in its leading spots. Further C-class
activity likely.
The position of NOAA 12573 on 8-Aug-2016 at 08:20 UT is:
N04E66, ( -863", 23" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has risen to low-to-moderate levels. An M1.3 flare
occurred on 7-Aug-2016 at 14:37 UT from a location at/beyond the
South-West limb. This region will not become the target region as
it has already rotated completely beyond the limb. NOAA 12572 has
grown in area but decreased in number of spots as it formed more
mature spots over the past 24 hours. 12572 remains classified as
a beta/D-type sunspot group and has continued to produce B-class
and H-alpha flaring. More B-class flares are expected in the next
24 hours, with a chance for another isolated C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 12572 on 7-Aug-2016 at 21:00 UT is:
N13W71, ( 870", 178" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a low level. Yesterday's newly-emerged target
region has now been designated as NOAA 12572. This region has been
classed as a beta/D-type sunspot group and has continued to grow
in area and mature its penumbrae since the last message, producing
an additional B-class flare. Further B-class activity is expected
over the next 24 hours, with a chance for an isolated low-to-mid
C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 12572 on 6-Aug-2016 at 16:00 UT is:
N13W55, ( 755", 155" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is low. Yesterday's target region is
designated as NOAA 12571, but has remained flare-quiet since the
last message. A new region has emerged only slightly ahead of the
decaying plage of NOAA 12570. This region has been the source of
several B-class flares and a C1.4 on 5-Aug-2016 at 10:08 UT, the
largest event in the past few weeks. Further C-class flares are
possible in the next 24-hour period.
The approximate position of this region on 5-Aug-2016 at 21:30 UT is:
N14W43, ( 627", 156" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is still at a very low level. NOAA 12570 has decayed
further and at the start of the UT day it was classified by NOAA as
a spotless plage region. However, satellite-based imaging indicates
that NOAA 12570 still retains some small spots. A new region is now
emerging in the North East quadrant with small spots already formed
in a bipolar (beta) magnetic configuration. Low B-class flares are
possible in the following 24 hours.
The approximate position of this region on 4-Aug-2016 at 21:30 UT is:
N13E24, ( -380", 123" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity continues to be at a very low level.
NOAA 12570 initially decayed further, remaining classified as an
alpha/A-type sunspot group at the beginning of the UT day. More
recently, 12570 appears to have emerged some small spots in its
northern-most portion of plage. Low B-class flares are possible
in the next 24-hour period.
The position of NOAA 12570 on 3-Aug-2016 at 21:30 UT is:
N10W13, ( 209", 69" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a very low level with no flares either at or
above B-class reported in the past 24 hours. NOAA 12570 continues
to decay and remains the only spotted region on disk. This region
remains classified as an alpha/A-type sunspot group. Low B-class
flares are possible in the following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12570 on 2-Aug-2016 at 22:00 UT is:
N10E01, ( -14", 67" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity remains very low. NOAA 12570 continues
in its decay phase and is the only spotted region on disk, having
been confirmed as an alpha/A-type classification at the beginning
of the UT day today. This region has again produced no flares over
the past 24 hours. Low-to-mid B-class flares are possible over the
next 24-hour period.
The position of NOAA 12570 on 1-Aug-2016 at 16:30 UT is:
N10E15, ( -240", 72" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity continues to be very low. NOAA 12570 has remained
the only spotted region on disk, but has decayed in spot number
and area over the past 24 hours and has produced no flares. NOAA
12570 also maintained a beta/B-type sunspot group designation,
but appears to now have an alpha/A-type classification. B-class
flares are possible over the following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12570 on 31-Jul-2016 at 16:00 UT is:
N11E31, ( -482", 100" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is very low. NOAA 12570 continues to
be the only spotted region on disk, and has maintained both spot
area and number of spots over the past 24 hours. This region has
also remained classified as a beta/B-type sunspot group while not
producing any flares since the last message. B-class activity is
possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 12570 on 30-Jul-2016 at 21:30 UT is:
N10E40, ( -601", 93" )
