Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar flare activity is at a low level. Since the previous message, a C2.5 flare was released on 04-Oct-2013 at 03:32 UT from yesterday's target region (NOAA 11856). The photospheric and coronal configuration of the target has not changed appreciably since the flare. Nearby NOAA 11857 is mildly active in X-rays and appears to be strongly magnetically connected to the target region, possibly leading to further destabilisation. Continued B-class activity is expected with a further C-class event being likely.

The position of NOAA 11856 on 04-Oct-2013 at 20:00 UT is:

N07E45, ( -674", 40" )

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.
