Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

The level of solar activity is low. Yesterday's target region (NOAA 12002) was responsible for low C-class activity, since the previous message and has decayed significantly. There is evidence for new flux emergence within NOAA 12004, and a new bipole region has emerged ~20 degrees East of 12004, but neither region has produced significant activity. On the other hand, there is evidence for flux emergence within NOAA 12010, which produced the largest events since the previous message, a C3.4 and a C4.7 flare on 18-Mar-2014 at 05:06 and 15:33 UT, respectively. Further C-class activity is expected with a chance for a high C-class event.

The position of NOAA 12010 on 18-Mar-2014 at 18:30 UT is:

 S14E54, ( -757", -164" )
