MM#003 Major Flare Watch
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 2403 continues to slowly decay but is maintaining
its F-type/beta-gamma-delta classification. There are small
opposite polarity flux elements located within both the large
leading and following spot penumbrae. 2403 was only able
to produce numerous C- and B-class events since the last
message. The largest was a C9.5 at 08/26/13:53 UT.
Although 2403 is currently losing its magnetic complexity
somewhat, we will continue the MM#003 observing plan for
another 24 hours. There is still a slight chance of an event =/>M5.
The position of NOAA 2304 on August 26 at 12:30 UT is:
S15W38 (Solar X = 566", Solar Y = -333")
See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and

for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
Regards,
Bill Marquette (Helio Research)
