Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity is at a low level. Yesterday's target (NOAA 12251) has not released significant activity since the previous message and is in a state of decay. On the other hand, the new region mentioned yesterday has been designated as NOAA 12253, and shows evidence of continuing flux emergence and a gamma magnetic classification. The region was the source of a series of C-class events. Further C-class activity is expected with a chance for a high C-class flare.

The position of NOAA 12253 on 31-Dec-2014 at 20:35 UT is:

S06E51 ( -756", -70" )

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.
