THE PROMS REALLY-DO "HAVE IT" TODAY 17-8-2021
Yes indeed, a quite rare event of recent, is that all four corner-limbs have some fabulous prominences.
So with only the one AR showing spots today, those proms are the all important captures... (If only the Sun was shining)...
CLEAR SKIES

Thanks Terry it always seem to be the case that when there are few spots there are lots of proms (and lots of rain)

Amen to that! I am under a strong tropical storm! Thunderstorms with heavy rain, wind and tornado watches.

Many thanks Alexandra, Eric and Alex and yes of course Alexandra, unless we could live in a desert where there is rarely rain and clouds.
Let's hope that Cycle #25 builds-up towards Maxima and beyond, where we can have lots of proms, spots, filaments and whatever-else (especially visible flares too)..
CLEAR SKIES again - please..
And just got that reply James. Sorry to hear of your weather and I've not heard of Tornado making watches, but I guess whatever will happen - will happen.
http://www.flashearth.com/ and https://www.blitzortung.org/en/live_lightning_maps.php certainly show some interesting weather of yours..
