Subject: MM#003 Major Flare Watch" -
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2014 22:56:38 +0000
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a low level. NOAA 12209 has now fully rotated onto the visible disk. The enormous trailing negative polarity spot that this region had displayed as NOAA 12912 on the previous disk passage appears to have split into two trailing spot clusters and drifted apart. This region has a beta magnetic class, but clearly has the largest spot area of the regions on disk. NOAA 12209 also produced the largest event since the last message, a C5.4 flare on 14-Nov-2014 at 07:42 UT. The MM#003 Major Flare Watch will remain active for the following 24 hours while the dynamics and evolution of NOAA 12209 become more clear.
The position of NOAA 12209 on 14-Nov-2014 at 23:00 UT is:
S15E49, ( -713", -282" )
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.
