I always thought Delta's make X-Class Flaring *very* probable but from what I can read, people still expect more M than X - Class Action? 

Beta-gamma-delta regions are capable of strong solar flares, but only the very complex regions with several strong delta structures can produce the bigger X-Class solar flares. A region with a small delta spot is only good for M-flares, big delta structures that are very close to other spots have the strongest magnetic shear and cause X-class flares.

this region has a compact delta spot close to the other spot so X-class flare can’t be ruled out.

Thank you 🙂

So an X-Class isnt ruled out but it only harbours energy for low X-Class + M-Class flaring is more probable because it has not developed more deltas etc. ? 

Hah the whole shear thing, it's actually so hard to find good information about this, even in Noaa's glossary. Still happy you explained that a while back :D

 

One more thing, in it's forecast noaa said that the spot grew in spot count. When i watch the sunspot archive on here, the spot has less spots than yesterday. Noaa drunk again?

mozy, for the first time ever, i found the delta myself :)! 

You'll be good at it soon enough with the solar cycle ramping up quickly now. ^^

I guess we can just relax for a day or two before this region starts firing some X-classes as they normally do ;) 

You know, they'd rather wait until they're not directly facing earth. or if they do they don't produce any CME's 😝

Argh, is the spot alreaedy departing?

Getting better now 👌

Are they new? 

noaa classified the spot as Beta Gamma and i was already wondering if there still is a delta. So now its even two? What does that change?

Region 13004 [S14W17] developed quickly and has a fairly strong magnetic delta with the leading penumbra. Major flares, including X class flares, are possible.

Always check Soleninfo. NOAA ARE AMATEURS.

It still has two strong magnetic delta structures like @Jack nicely has shown in his image. So it's still beta-gamma-delta 😉

Classical Noa move.. its sad.

I asked earlier if that changes Flare likeliness alot, because it previously had only 1 Delta.

I'm quite baffled how this region is struggling to even get into the upper C-class range, would've expected atleast a couple of M-flares since yesterday, probably only a matter of time though.

Yes, from what i can see when comparing SDO images, its still growing.

Dont know if its getting more or less complex though.

Nope, unfortunately not.

Ah, im sorry then. 

Any news on our Region? 

To me it looks like the existing delta(s? i dont know if its one or two?) got a little more compact? I dont know if it changes much about the regions flare potential though :< 

I thought the recent M-Class came from it, but it's only producing C-Class Flares as of now.

by the way: Noaa still assigning it as Beta Gamma 🤡

The first M class came from it, the second one from AR3006, the delta's are still there but shrinking a bit.

it is shrinking a lot sadly

Hope we get more spot formation soon or it might collapse completely.

Oh, so the spot / delta is decaying? 

To me it looked like it was growing 😧
