MM#003 Major Flare Watch

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Target region, NOAA 1261, was the source of a significant M6.0 event at 08/03/13:48 UT. 1261 also produced an M1.1 event at 08/03/03:37 UT. NOAA 1263, N17E02, was the source region of an M1.7 event at 08/03/04:32 UT. Both regions currently remain magnetically complex and are capable of producing further M-class events in the next few days. The target region will continue to be 1261.

The position of NOAA 1261 on August 03 at 10:30 UT is: N15W27 (Solar X = 416", Solar Y = 160")
