And it looks to be coming from the area with barely any spots or if it's even AR3351 instead? 😅

You're right, the flare does look like it's close to that region. I'm guessing it might be interaction between the negative area there and the positive area of the larger region (this one, 3354).

keep me updated please :) ! 

Looking at 14:20 now I think there might actually be some ejecta, but I'm not sure. It's often hard to tell from SUVI. I think there's some dimming too.

I'm interested in knowing which part of the region the flare came from specifically. Is there a way to find out?

The most live imagery (at least as far as I'm aware) is from SUVI, the ultraviolet imager on the GOES satellites (that are the ones measuring the X-ray flux too), which can be found here. It's very close to real-time, typically you get imagery 5-10 minutes after the X-ray flux indicates a flare so you can tell where it's coming from.

Let me add in that watching AIA 1600 & AIA 1700 over at https://sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/ has the fastest updates & is the easiest way (in my opinion) to see which region is flaring or what part of a certain region is flaring.

Didn't know any of the SDO imagery even updated that fast, that's cool. Do those wavelengths show the flaring as clearly while it's happening? Definitely going to check it out next time a flare occurs and see if I can spot it.

Are AIA 1600 & AIA 1700 both faster than any of the AIA images from SDO?

Yes, you'll be able to spot it without question, you'll know once you see it.

thanks mozy! Thats easier than suvi which laggs behind often.

Yeah, I use that first while waiting for SUVI

Yes, for some reason they are.

Trend?

Yes - there is an upward trend in X-Ray Flux over the past several days using a  peak detector function.  Will it continue or have we reached an inflection point?   TBD.  Also monitor magnetic classification and AR sunspot /  area development, and summarily, the daily SWPC Whole Disk Forecast, currently C=99%, M=40%, X=10%.

Delta?

No, i would say there is no delta

Agree with that assessment. Another case where looking at the intensitygram is necessary, as the negative area itself doesn't have any clear umbra, nor do the surrounding positive areas. It gets quite obvious when you compare:
