Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a moderate level. A new flux region is emerging in
the South West quadrant and has developed several spots in the previous
12 hours. NOAA region 11692 has rotated to the North West limb and was
last classified by NOAA as a beta/D-type sunspot group. This region was
the source of several low C-class events in the past 24 hours, as well
as an M1.6 on 21-Mar-2013 at 21:42 UT. Further low C-class activity is
likely with a small chance for another high C-/low M-class event before
the higher-lying loops of NOAA 11692 rotate completely beyond the limb.
The position of NOAA 11692 on 22-Mar-2013 at 14:30 UT is:
N09W90, ( 950", 150" )
