Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity remains at extremely low levels. NOAA 12704 has continued to decay, decreasing in spot area and number of spots to be designated an alpha/A-type group. However, a region in close proximity to 12704 is currently displaying minor flux emergence and 12704 has been the source of several minor flare events, the largest a B3.5 at 12:37 UT, over the past several hours. Further B-class activity may be possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12704 on 15-Apr-2018 at 18:30 UT is:
N12E14, ( -224", 287" )
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.
