Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is very low. There was a single C class flare that originated from the decaying plage of 11421. There appears to be a small amount of emerging flux appearing in the center of this plage region. If this continues to grow, it may produce further activity. However, today's target will continue to be the regions in the north east quadrant. 11423 currently contains the largest spot on the Sun and although 11424 is more decayed than anticipated, it has been producing multiple B class flares and this is expected to continue. This will continue as today's target, hopefully keeping 11423 in the target field also.
The position of NOAA 11424 on 26-Feb-2012 16:00 UT is:
N08 E42, ( -643" 223" )
