Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is very low. NOAA region 11628 has recently rotated over the North East limb and was the source of a C1.7 flare on 5-Dec-2012 at 00:12 UT. This region is classified as an alpha/A-type group, with some extended plage field. NOAA 11623 and 11625 continue in decay phase, with 11625 becoming an alpha/H-type sunspot group. 11623 has a beta/C-type classification and remains the more active, producing two B-class events since yesterday's message. Further B-class activity is expected, with a small chance for a C-class event.
The position of NOAA 11623/11625 on 6-Dec-2012 at 11:30 UT is:
N10W40, ( 623", 168" )
