The region has grown in size to over 1000 uh and has become highly sheared with its polarity inversion line aligned in the east-west direction. Further C- and M-level activity expected with good chance for another major flare in the next 24-48 hours.

The position of NOAA 11429 on 7-Mar-2012 at 08:00 UT is:

N17E24, ( -377", 388" )
