Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity remains at a moderate level. NOAA regions 11730 and 11731 have both maintained beta-gamma-delta/E-type sunspot group classifications. NOAA 11731 has stabilized in spot area coverage and number of spots, while 11730 continues to decrease in spot area and is now decreasing in number of spots. NOAA 11731 was the source of several C-class events over the past 24 hours, as well as an M1.1 flare on 2-May-2013 at 04:58 UT. Further C-class activity is expected, with a chance for another low M-class event.
The position of NOAA 11731 on 2-May-2013 at 09:00 UT is:
N09W22, ( 353", 211" )
