MM#003 Major Flare Watch
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 1515 continues to maintain a complex
F-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group but has lost some
of its strongest delta configuration. 1515 was the source of
countless C-class events and a few low-level M-class events
during the past 24 hours. At this time we are suspending
the MM#018 (Region Likely To Produce Great Flares) observing
plan and return to the Major Flare Watch plan. An X-class event
=/>X5 is less likely in the next 24 hours. 1515 still has
the potential to produce an M-class event =/>M5. The large
region near the southeast limb (S17E77) could also be a source
of an M-class event.
The position of NOAA 1515 on July 06 at 13:00 UT is:
