Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at low levels. The target region near the southeast
limb has now been designated as NOAA 11909 and is classified as having a
beta/D-type magnetic configuration. The region has been quiescent over the
past 24 hours but may yet produce additional isolated low-level events.
The position of NOAA 11909 on 28-Nov-2013 at 14:05 UT is:

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at low levels. The new target region on the eastern
limb remains unnumbered and has only produced a few B-level events since
the last message. The region is still too close to the limb to ascertain
its magnetic configuration but further low-level events are expected with
chance for an isolated C-class flare.
The position of the target region on 27-Nov-2013 at 14:05 UT is:
S15E81, ( -927", -255" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has returned to low levels with NOAA 11904 now over the
western limb. A new unnumbered region on the southeast limb has been the
source of a number of C1 flares since the last message and shall be the new
target region. Its magnetic configuration is uncertain at this time but
additional C-level events are possible as the region rotates on to the disk.
The position of the target region on 26-Nov-2013 at 14:05 UT is:
S16E82, ( -926", -271" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has diminished over the past 24 hours with NOAA 11904 now on
the western limb. The region remains largely unchanged since the last
message but retains its beta-gamma configuration. Chance for isolated
C-level events before west limb passage.
The position of NOAA 11904 on 25-Nov-2013 at 12:35 UT is:
N12W89, ( 950", 201" )

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 1904 was the source of numerous C-class
events. The largest was a C4.7 at 11/24/07:52 UT. 1904 is
mostly unchanged maintaining a D-type/beta-gamma classification.
C-class events probable with a slight chance of an isolated
M-class event in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 1904 on November 24 at 14:00 UT is:
N12W75 (Solar X = 918", Solar Y = 194")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The southeastern target region has completed east limb passage.
The region has a large plage area with a simple C-type/beta
sunspot group. The most active region on the visible solar disk
is a recently emerged region located north of NOAA 1899.
The region was the source of two M-class events today.
The largest was an M1.1 at 11/23/02:32 UT. The region is currently
displaying a D-type/beta-gamma sunspot group with a cluster of
small spots. C-class events probable with a slight chance of
another isolated M-class event in the next 24 hour period.
The position of the target region on November 23 at 16:00 UT is:
N12W66 (Solar X = 870", Solar Y = 190")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 1897 has completed west limb passage. The new
target is a region that produced a limb occulted C3.6 event
at 11/22/14:45 UT. The region is located on the southeastern
limb. Another C-class event is possible in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target on Nov. 22 at 14:45 UT is:
S12E89 (Solar X = -950", Solar Y = -202")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 1893 was the source of an isolated M1.2
limb occulted event at 11/21/11:11 UT. 1893 is now located
beyond the west limb. The new target region is NOAA
1897. 1897 is currently displaying a D-type/beta-gamma
sunspot group. 1897 produced a C1.8 event at 11/21/09:08 UT.
The new target position will also catch possible activity from
SW regions 1893,1895, and 1900. C-class event possible
with only a slight chance of an isolated M-class event.
The position of NOAA 1897 on November 21 at 16:30 UT is:
S18W68 (Solar X = 857", Solar Y = -312")

MM#003 Major Flare Watch
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 1893 has been quiescent in the past 24 hours.
Its magnetic delta configuration decayed somewhat following
the X1 event yesterday. Another major event =/>M5 is still
possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 1893 on November 20 at 14:00 UT is:
S13W85 Solar X = 942", Solar Y = -221")

MM#003 Major Flare Watch
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 1893 was the source of a major X1.0
event at 11/19/10:26 UT. 1893 is maintaining a complex
E-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group. At this time we are
implementing Max Millennium coordinated observing plan
#003 (Region Likely To Produce A Major Flare). 1893 has
the potential to produce another event =/>M5 before west
limb passage.
The position of NOAA 1893 on November 19 at 14:00 UT is:
S14W71 (Solar X = 892", Solar Y = -247")
