Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA region 11339 has shown initial signs of decaying with losing a few spots and decreasing in area. This region is now classified as an E-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group and has been the source of 3 M-class events since yesterday's message. However, the resulting flare magnitudes are generally decreasing (the largest being an M1.8 on 5-Nov-2011 at 20:31 UT) so we are ending the Major Flare Watch campaign. A good chance remains for further M-class events, with a small chance of a low X-class flare.
The position of NOAA 11339 on 6-Nov-2011 at 17:00 UT is:
N19E22, ( -340", 259" )
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.
