Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Since the previous message, the target region (now designated as NOAA 11990) was the source of a X4.97 flare on 25-Feb-2014 at 00:49 UT. At this time a large spot is visible in the leading portion of the target region, but the region's magnetic configuration is still uncertain. A Major Flare Watch is now in effect. There is a significant chance for a further major flare.
The position of NOAA 11990 on 25-Feb-2014 at 01:20 UT is: S15E76, ( -910", -221" )
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.
