Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at a very low level. The largest event in the past 24 hours was a B2.6 flare produced by the plage region NOAA 12895. At present there are two regions with sunspots, NOAA 12894 and 12896, on the visible solar disk, both of which have an Alpha/H-type configuration. Today the target will continue to be the limb region. Some spots have emerged from this region. B-class flares are expected in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target on November 16 at 04:30 UT is:
N14E79 (-870", 230")
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
