MM#009 Default HESSI Target

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity is low. NOAA regions 2277 and 2280 produced only C-class activity in the past 24 hours. 2277 developed new flux around its trailing sunspot but decay was observed within its leading area. 2280 is displaying a D-type/beta-gamma sunspot group with a delta configuration that developed in its trailing portion since the last message. The target will switch to 2280 for at least today. C-class events expected with the chance of an isolated M-class event from new target region 2280 and old target region 2277 (N08W28) in the next 24 hour period.

The position of NOAA 2280 on February 05 at 16:00 UT is: S08E22 (Solar X = -363", Solar Y =-037")
