Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA region 11432 appears to be in decay phase, decreasing in spot
area coverage and increasing in number of spots. Recently numbered
NOAA 11435 has experienced a significant degree of flux emergence
between the leading and trailing spots since a beta/D-type sunspot
group classification was issued on 17-Mar-2012 at 00:30 UT. A good
chance exists for C-class activity, especially if 11435 continues
to undergo flux emergence.
The position of NOAA 11435 on 17-Mar-2012 at 11:00 UT is:
S25W30, ( 437", -312" )
