Is it on the SW Limb? I have been recording a big blast off the SW Limb that started about 16:00 UTC which corresponds to a C Class flare on the GOES Plot.

Hi

We saw a bright prom, looked like a surfer with the font of his board sticking up.

Rod was round and pointed it out to me when I got back from getting a car.

Cheers. Andrew.
