SunSpot 1165 is returning

Cool video about the possibility of another X-Flare in few days ...

CAT 35/NOAA AR 1176 was responsible for an M-flare early this morning, March 23. The group is not yet completely visible in magnetograms. We expect a high flaring activity from this group. The geomagnetic conditions are quiet. The proton flux decreased to nominal values.

Returning active region 1165 which was renumbered 1176 remains a large sunspot capable of M-Class flares. Sunspot 1175 which is about to rotate onto the western limb is losing size and poses no threat for strong solar flares.

I see a bunch of possible M-class flares being reported, but nothing about an X class.
