Rotating, taking direct aim on us!

IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low
for the next three days (27 - 29 March). A chance for M-class
activity exists on day one (27 March) becoming likely on days two
and three (28 - 29 March) with a slight chance for X-class activity
on 29 March. This expected increase in activity is due to the
complex nature of Region 1176 and the return of old Region 1166
(N10, L=110) on 27 March. On its last transit across the disk, old
Region 1166 produced four M-class events and one X-class event.
