Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar flare activity is very low. NOAA region 11142 has
maintained area coverage and a beta magnetic classification despite
halving in number of spots. This region remains bright in H-alpha and
UV plage emission. B-class activity is probable.
The position of NOAA 11142 on 7-Jan-2011 at 10:30 UT is:
S14W38, ( 582", -188" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is at a very low level. NOAA region 11142 continues
to decay, losing area coverage and number of spots, while remaining
bright in H-alpha emission. B-class activity is probable.
The position of NOAA 11142 on 6-Jan-2011 at 10:00 UT is:
S13W24, ( 381", -165" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar flare activity is low. NOAA 11142 has maintained a beta
magnetic classification while growing in numbers of spots and decaying in
area. This region remains bright in compact EUV-emitting loops as well as
H-alpha and UV plage emission. B-class activity is expected, with a small
chance for a C-class event if the region continues to fragment.
The position of NOAA 11142 on 5-Jan-2011 at 10:00 UT is:
S12W11, ( 175", -146" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is at a low level. NOAA regions 11141 and 11142 both
have bipolar beta magnetic classifications, with 11142 showing the most
spots and greatest area coverage. NOAA 11142 has been the source of
several B-class flares and a C1.1 flare on 3-Jan-2011 at 23:26 UT. More
B-class activity is expected, with a chance for another C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 11142 on 4-Jan-2011 at 12:00 UT is:
S13W00, ( -6", -164" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is very low. NOAA region 11142 has continued to
grow in area coverage over the last 24 hours. This region remains
bright in H-alpha and compact EUV loop emission. B-class activity
is probable.
The position of NOAA 11142 on 3-Jan-2011 at 13:00 UT is:
S12E14, ( -229", -150" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar flare activity is very low. Two newly spotted regions
with beta magnetic classifications have emerged in the last 24 hours.
NOAA 11142 is the target of choice because it is more compact and
appears to be continuing to grow in area coverage. B-class activity is
probable, with a small chance of a C-class event.
The position of NOAA 11142 on 2-Jan-2011 at 12:00 UT is:
S14E26, ( -422", -190" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is at a very low level. Newly numbered NOAA region 11140
has rotated over the NE limb and has a simple alpha magnetic classification.
This region has been the source of several B-class flares, the largest being a
B9.2 on 31-Dec-2010 at 19:28 UT. Further B-class activity is probable, with a
small chance of a C-class event.
The position of NOAA 11140 on 1-Jan-2011 at 11:00 UT is:
N32E61, ( -726", 538" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar flare activity is low. NOAA region 11138 has continued
to decay in area coverage and numbers of spots, producing a C1.3 flare
on 31-Dec-2010 at 04:18 UT in the process. This region is now a simple
alpha magnetic classification. B-class activity is probable, with a small
chance for another minor event.
The position of NOAA 11138 on 31-Dec-2010 at 11:00 UT is:
N12W61, ( 837", 226" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity remains at an extremely low level. NOAA region 11138
has maintained a mixed magnetic polarity (i.e., beta-gamma) classification
despite decreasing in area coverage and number of spots. B-class activity
is probable.
The position of NOAA 11138 on 30-Dec-2010 at 13:00 UT is:
N13W46, ( 688", 252" )

28-Dec-2010 due to a minor issue with the mailing list distribution server.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar flare activity continues to be extremely low. NOAA
region 11138 has grown in area and number of spots. This region has
also increased in complexity through the introduction of polarity mixing,
making it a beta-gamma magnetic configuration. Some B-class activity
is possible, with a small chance of a minor event.
The position of NOAA 11138 on 29-Dec-2010 at 14:30 UT is:
N13W34, ( 533", 257" )
