Dear Collaborators,
Dear Collaborators, The opposite polarity spots within the northern trailing area of target region NOAA 3057 (N16W05) decayed significantly early in the past 24 hour period. It was followed by significant spot re-growth in the same area later in the period but the emerging flux did not trigger flare activity. The only flare activity in the past 24 hours was minor C-class events produced by NOAA regions 3053 (N15W86), 3055 (S16W61), 3056 (S17W25), and 3058 (N15E33). The largest event was a C6.5 at 07/17/12:27. Its source region was NOAA 3058. The target will switch back to 3058 today. 3058 developed a weak magnetic delta configuration yesterday within the intermediate portion of its D-type/beta-gamma sunspot group. C-class events possible with a slight chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 3058 on July 17 at 14:00 UT is: N15E33 (Solar X = - 498", Solar Y = 184") 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.
