the last message was a C3.6 flare at 08:05 UT today produced
by NOAA 14136. 14136 has been designated as a beta-delta/
D-type region, increasing in the sunspot area and number of 
spots. This region also produced eight ~C2 flares during the

target 14142 (N01E01, beta-gamma/D-type) has been flare 
quiet after producing the C2.9 flare at 13:09 UT yesterday. 
Additional C-class activities are expected in the following 24 
hours.
