And the hits just keep on coming

Sunspot 1429 (surely this guy needs a more impressive name) is still unleashing large flares. Today it was an M2 class flare and may be one of the last flares we'll pick up from this most active sunspot. It's now leaving the Earth facing side of the Sun but orbiting instruments may still pick up its activity. My solar flare monitor picked up the action as it happen at about 15:15 today.
