MM#009 Default Target
Dear Collaborators,
NOAA regions 2915, 2918, and 2921 produced several minor B-class events in the past 24 hours. The target region NOAA 2916 (E-type/beta-gamma) added a few small leading polarity sunspots located just east of the large trailing polarity sunspot since the last message. Those spots are now decaying. C-class events possible with only a very slight chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2916 on December 30 at 15:00 UT is: S17W30 (Solar X = 468", Solar Y = -246")
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.
