Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a low level. The largest event since the last
message was a C2.6 flare at 15:49 UT on July 9 produced by
the target region, now designated as NOAA 12564. NOAA 12564
was also the source of a few high-level B-class events. 12564
was classified as an Alpha/H-type sunspot group, but seems to
have a beta-gamma magnetic complexity. It is displaying bright
surges in H-alpha images. Low-to-mid C-class activities are likely
in the following 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12564 on July 9 at 20:20 UT is:
N10E67 (-856", 139")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The GOES soft X-ray flux has been above the B2 level. The largest
event since the last message was a C2.7 at 00:48 UT on July 8 from
a limb region (N09E89). This limb region was also the source of a
few B-class flares. It is rotating onto the visible disk and will be today's
target. If possible, also include another unnumbered region near the
northeast limb (N20E65), which is showing dynamic H-alpha plage.
B-class flares are expected with a change of minor C-class flares in
the next 24 hours.
The position of the target on July 8 at 20:00 UT is:
N10E89 (-900", 190")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The solar activity has increased slightly. The largest event since the
last message was a C5.1 flare at 07:49 UT on July 7 produced by
an emerging flux region (EFR) in the southwest quadrant (S16W35).
This EFR was also the source of a few minor B-class events, but
now has decayed somewhat. A new region near the southeast limb
is rotating onto the visible disk, which has the potential to produce
some low-level activities in the next few days. It will be today's target.
The position of the target on July 7 at 17:00 UT is:
S06E75 (894", -100")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The sunspots have returned back. There are currently two
active regions with sunspots on the visible disk. The target
region, now designated as NOAA 12559, was the source of
a long duration event (a B3.7 flare at 19:10 UT on July 5)
accompanied by a wide CME. 12559 was classified as a
B-type/beta magnetic configuration. There are still some
filaments hanging above this region. Some low level activities
are likely in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12559 on July 6 at 20:30 UT is:
N10W32 (494", 115")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The GOES soft X-ray flux has been flat at the ~B1 level.
The target region did not produce any noteworthy events
in the past 24 hours with the filaments still hanging there.
No significant flare activities are expected in the following
24 hours.
The position of the target on July 5 at 19:00 UT is:
N16W27 (450", 220")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at an extremely low level with the GOES soft
X-ray flux flat at the ~A9 level. The visible solar disk remains
spotless. The target region, associated with a few activated
filaments in the northeast and southwest, produced several
~B1 events since the last message. Only very minor activities
are possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of the target on July 4 at 18:30 UT is:
N16W20 (350", 220")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The target region's filament located along its magnetic
inversion line became activated and erupted which gave
rise to a small two-strand flare with an associated minor
B1.6 event at 07/03/09:58. The target region continues
to display a few "micropores". No significant solar flare
activity expected anytime soon.
The position of the target on July 03 at 13:30 UT is:
N16W05 (Solar X = 079", Solar Y = 211")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is extremely low. The background
x-ray flux is currently flat at the A5.9 level. The target
region has developed a few tiny sunspot pores
(visible only on images having the very best resolution).
No significant solar flare activity expected anytime soon.
The position of the target on July 02 at 13:45 UT is:
N16E09 (Solar X = -143", Solar Y = 213")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is extremely low. The background
x-ray flux is currently flat at the A5.2 level. The tiny EFR
(S17E40) has decayed. The visible solar disk is now
spotless again. The target plage is stable and quiescent.
No noteworthy solar flare events expected anytime soon.
The position of the target on July 01 at 13:45 UT is:
N16E28 (Solar X = -356", Solar Y = 218")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity continues very low. The target plage's
tiny sunspot pores have decayed. A small portion of a filament
located northeast of the target has disappeared most likely
by slow dissolution. There is currently a tiny EFR with a two
spot B-type/beta sunspot group located at S17E53. No
significant solar flare activity expected but there is a
possibility of filament activation/eruption in the next
24-48 hours.
The position of the target on June 30 at 13:45 UT is:
N16E36 (Solar X = -535", Solar Y = 224")
