Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Solar activity remains at a low level. Yesterday's target region has rotated further onto the visible solar disk and still shows no sign of sunspots. NOAA region 11909 continues to decay and appears to be fragmenting (having decreased in area and increased in spot number), while decreasing in complexity to a beta/D-type sunspot group class. This region produced two C-class events since yesterday's message, including the largest flare of the period (a C6.7 flare on 5-Dec-2013 at 17:35 UT). Further C-class activity is likely in the next 24 hours.

The position of NOAA 11909 on 6-Dec-2013 at 15:00 UT is:

S17W42, ( 627", -287" )

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.
