Dear Collaborators,
The limb target region was the source of four B-class flares as well as two C-class flares (a C2.6 at 09/18/08:18 UT and a C1.6 at 09/19/01:04 UT) in the past 24 hours. This region has some sunspots now and is supposed to be numbered as a new region tomorrow. It is still too close to the limb to ascertain its magnetic configuration. Further B- and C-class activities are expected in the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target region on September 19 at 07:30 UT is:
S32E77 (-800", -530")
