Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is low. NOAA 12282 has again decreased marginally in spot area and number of spots as it rotates further towards the North West limb. This region remains classified as a beta/C-type sunspot group and produced the largest magnitude event in the previous 24 hours (a C3.5 flare on 18-Feb-2015 at 21:53 UT). Yesterday’s target region is now designated as NOAA 12287 and has formed several more small spots since yesterday’s message. B-class flares are expected over the next 24 hours, with a chance for more C-class activity.

The position of NOAA 12287 on 19-Feb-2015 at 14:00 UT is:

N14E13, ( -217”, 346” )
