Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is extremely low. NOAA 12718 decayed to plage, while yesterday's target has now been numbered as NOAA 12719. This region has been designated as a beta/B-type sunspot group, but appears to have now developed a rudimentary penumbra. No significant flares have occurred since the last message and no increase in flare activity is expected in the following 24 hours.

The position of NOAA 12719 on 20-Aug-2018 at 20:00 UT is:

S06E32, ( -500", -195" )

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.
