Dear Collaborators,
The limb target region was the source of three low B-class flares (the largest one being a B2.0 at 09/18/00:37 UT) in the past 24 hours. This region is rotating onto the visible solar disk. Currently the visible solar disk is still void of sunspots. B-class flares are expected and C-class activities are probable from the limb target region in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the limb target on September 18 at 05:00 UT is:
S30E85 (-880", -410")
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.
