Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is extremely low. NOAA 12719 increased in magnetic complexity since the last message to be designated as a beta-gamma/C-type sunspot group, but appears to have begun decaying. A new spot region has also emerged as a bipolar magnetic structure with possible mixing in its interior portion. No significant flares have occurred since the last message. B-class flares may be possible over the following 24 hours, due to the new region's speed of flux emergence.
The approximate position of this region on 24-Aug-2018 at 21:30 UT is:
N08W22, ( 353", 25" )
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.
