MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is very low. The visible solar disk is
spotless. The spotless target plage (NOAA 2556, N05W34)
continues to be quiescent. The target will switch to an area
beyond the northeastern limb that was the source of several
B-class events and associated surges and spray-type
prominences.
The approximate position of the target on June 25 at 15:45 UT is:
N16E90 (Solar X-907", Solar Y = 260")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is extremely low. The background x-ray
flux is currently flat at the A8.7 level. The visible solar disk
is spotless. The only event since the last message was a
minor B3.7 at 06/24/00:34 UT produced by tiny spotless
NOAA 2557 (N09W72). The spotless target region NOAA
was quiescent during the past 24 hours. The extremely
low level of solar flare activity is expected to continue for
the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2556 on June 24 at 14:20 UT is:
N05W21 (Solar X = 338", Solar Y = 049")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity continues at an extremely low level.
The current visible solar disk is spotless. Target region
NOAA 2553 has completed west limb passage. The new
target will be spotless region 2556. No significant solar flare
activity expected anytime soon.
The position of NOAA 2556 on June 23 at 14:30 UT is:
N06W04 (Solar X = 066", Solar Y = 065")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is extremely low. No flares since the
last message. The background x-ray flux is currently flat
at the A8.2 level. Target region NOAA 2553 is rotating
over the southwestern limb. No significant solar flare
events expected anytime soon.
The position of NOAA 2553 on June 22 at 14:20 UT is:
S07W86 (Solar X = 934", Solar Y = -117")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is very low. The background x-ray
flux is currently at the A9.3 level. Target region NOAA 2558
continues in decay phase and is now spotless. The target
will switch to the large H-type/alpha sunspot (NOAA 2553)
located in the southwestern quadrant. 2553 was the source
of two minor B-class events in the past 24 hours. No significant
solar flare events expected anytime soon.
The position of NOAA 2553 on June 21 at 14:20 UT is:
S06W72 (Solar X = 893", Solar Y = -107")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is very low. The background x-ray
flux is currently at the A8.6 level. The largest event
since the last message was a B9.6 at 06/20/03:00 UT
produced by recently emerged target region NOAA 2558.
2558 has significantly decayed in the past 24 hours.
Only a slight chance of minor B-class activity is expected
in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2558 on June 20 at 14:20 UT is:
N13W45 (Solar X = 652", Solar Y = 193")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 12555 is now behind the western limb and has been quiescent over
the past 24 hours. A newly emerged unnumbered region in the northwest
quadrant was the source of a C1.7 flare at 11:44 UT today and shall be
the new target region. The region appears to be small and compact with
some mixed polarity in its core. Chance for further low level activity
over the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 19-Jun-2016 at 17:20 UT is:
N11W33, ( 508", 159" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at low levels. NOAA 12555 continues to produce
multiple B-level events as it nears the western limb. Its magnetic
configuration is uncertain at this time but the region appears to be
in decay. Further low level activity expected until the region
transits the western limb.
The position of NOAA 12555 on 18-Jun-2016 at 14:20 UT is:
S09W79, ( 915",-152" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has remained at the B-level since the last message. The
target region is now designated as NOAA 12555, and appears to be
decaying as it approaches the southwest limb while retaining its beta
configuration. Further B-level activity likely with chance for an
isolated low C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 12555 on 17-Jun-2016 at 15:43 UT is:
S09W66, ( 853", -156" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has begun to increase due to the rapid emergence of a
new beta region in the southwest quadrant. It has produced several
B-class flares over the past 12 hours, including a B8.8 flare at 13:17
UT today. As NOAA 12554 is now over the western limb, this unnumbered
region shall be the new target. Good chance for continued low level
activity, including chance for some C-level events if the region
continues to develop.
The approximate position of the target region on 16-Jun-2016 at 17:20 UT is:
S08W51, ( 731", -145" )
