The region has returned on the East limb (as AR 933) but is now only flaring occassionally at the C-class level. We expect that it will continue doing so in the comin days. Meanwhile we expect this afternoonthe influence of a recurrent coronal hole. In the previous solar rotations this hole pushed the solar wind speed up to 600km/s and lead to Kp~5 disturbances in the geomagnetic activity.
