MM#009 Default HESSI Target

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
 
The target EFR is now numbered NOAA 1682.  1682 is continuing
in growth phase displaying bright H-alpha plage and an arch-type
filament system.  The region currently has a D-type sunspot group
with a weak beta-gamma magnetic configuration.  1682 was the source
of B-class activity in the past 24 hours.  The largest was a B4.3
at 02/26/08:12 UT.  Additional B-class events expected with the
chance of a C-class event in the next 24 hours.  If rapid development
continues there is a chance of an isolated M-class event as well. 

The position of NOAA 1682 on February 26 at 14:00 UT is:
S18E03 (Solar X = -048", Solar Y = -187")
