MM#003 Major Flare Watch

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

NOAA 1164 appears to be reforming a complex magnetic delta configuration. 1164 was the source of numerous C-class activity in the past 24 hours. 1164 has not been the source of a significant flare since the limb occulted major flare on February 24 but it continues to possess a magnetic complexity with the potential to produce an event equal to or greater than M5.

The position of NOAA 1164 on March 01 at 12:30 UT is: N26E26 (Solar X = -382", Solar Y = 520")

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.
