MM#003 Major Flare Watch

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

The current activity level is high. The target region (NOAA 11875) has just released a ~M9 flare on 24-Oct-2013 at 00:30 UT. Because of this significant flare, and region's beta-gamma-delta magnetic classification, a major flare watch is now enacted. Further M-class activity is likely, with a good chance for a major flare (>M5).

The position of NOAA 11875 on 24-Oct-2013 at 00:50 UT is:

N08W11, ( 191", 50" )

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.
