Solar activity begins picking up with an M1.2 flare earlier today. AR 1654 still turning towards earth.
"A significant flare from the active region would seem to be just a matter of time. AR1654 is slowly turning toward Earth, so the chance of an Earth-directed explosion is growing as well."

"Large AR 1654 is rotating into more geoeffective position. This large group consists of two main cores, in which the leader spot appears to be the most complex. Also, a new line of sunspots looks to be forming within the center of the cluster. The two dark cores, connected by a canopy of strong magnetic fields, are each big enough to swallow Earth four times over."

Yes it could hit earth if it popped off a large flare today, likely it would be a glancing blow.
Tomorrow and for days following it will be in better position to nail us if something big happened.

The percentage...that's hard to say. It could happen.

The delta classification
Let's digg a bit deeper into the magnetic delta class. This is the most interesting type of sunspot due to the high activity they can cause. With the following list you can determine whether a sunspot has a magnetic delta structure:

1.Delta groups are often very big and 90 percent of the sunspots have a reversed polarity with a high activity level, especially when big solar flares erupt. These have mostly a complex, unusual or broken view of the umbra.
2.Delta groups form by the are formed by the aggregation of sunspots with opposite polarity of various dipoles, which are linked to shared magnetic field lines rather than direct magnetic lines. All spots are located in the penumbral region.
3.Delta spots often last longer than one rotation of the Sun than other sunspots. However, new delta spots can be formed within the same area.
4.Delta sunspot groups usually do not separate, but rather die together.
5.Active delta groups emit strong H-alpha emissions. Sometimes filaments can come out of the group.

If you check the following thread: Thread: Sunspot as big as Jupiter com in' round the bend (Page 9)

I had bets going that we would see a beta delta within 48 hours...

The gamma addition was a bit of a surprise:)

The umbra's positionings were pretty obvious of become a delta class from 24 hours into observation... Its the lower right side glassing off that's really something special about 1654...

Wondering if we should start the Large eq prediction threads for a 7-10 day window... If this thing decides to lash at us I assume to see some heightened activity in that department...

"For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another." -- Galatians 5:14-26
