Dear Collaborators,

The GOES soft X-ray flux has been flat at an ~A7 level. Yesterday's target region has decayed to a plage. Today the target will switch to a newly emerged region in the northeast quadrant. This region was designated as NOAA 12747 with an Alpha/A-type sunspot group. No noteworthy activity is expected in the next 24 hours.

The position of NOAA 12747 on August 7 at 07:30 UT is:

N06E07 (-115", 2")

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.
