Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 11387 continues to develop and is now classified as a beta-gamma region due to some negative polarity flux encroaching on the positive leader spot. The region was the source of several C-level events since the last message, as well as an M2 flare at 20:12 UT yesterday. NOAA 11386 is also now a beta-gamma region and has produced some C-level events. However NOAA 11387 shall remain the target region with further C-level activity expected and a chance of another M-class flare.
The position of NOAA 11387 on 27-Dec-2011 at 08:00 UT is:
S22W47, ( 663", -340" )
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.
