Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Current solar activity is low-moderate. Since the previous message, yesterday's target (NOAA 12056) was responsible for a C6.8 flare on 13-May-2014 at 22:24 UT, but the region has now ceased emerging flux. However, a new region has rapidly emerged near N10E50 and was responsible for the largest event since the previous message, a C8.3 flare on 14-May-2014 at 15:04 UT. There is some evidence for a small amount of mixed polarity flux in the leading spot. Further C-class activity is expected with a chance for a low M-class flare.
The position of the new region on 14-May-2014 18:30 UT is:
N10E46, ( -671", 196" )
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.
