Its been a week since we imaged the sun. Some pretty bad weather has occurred in that time causing a lot of people much damage and heartache.
We feel fortunate to be able to enjoy viewing and imaging today. The clouds didn't clear until later in the afternoon, so the seeing was average but the solar activity was spectacular. There was a towering prominence in the north west with a filaprom walking across and off the disk in the same region. There was a lovely arch prom in the south west and a furry beard filaprom due south :)
