Subject: MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Date: Sat, 23 Jul 2016 11:38:35 -0600
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity was at a high level in the past 24 hours. The target region NOAA 12567 (very close to NOAA 12565, N04W84) produced three major flares, M5.0 at 01:46 UT, M7.6 at 05:00 UT, and M5.5 at 05:27 UT on July 23, with the largest one associated with a non- Earth-directed CME. At this point, we are not implementing a Major Flare Watch because NOAA 12567 seems to simplify its magnetic complexity after producing those three major flares. 12567 has a beta/D-type sunspot group now decreasing in sunspot area (330 uh, i.e., less than 500 uh). It is rotating over the west limb, but still has the potential to produce (low) M-class events in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12567 on July 23 at 14:20 UT is:
N06W75 (907", 76")
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.
