We have seen many coronal mass ejections from the sun in the past but this is the first video I have seen (that I can remember) where blobs of plasma seem to rain from a prominence. An amateur astronomer captured this video in Ocean Beach, CA.
Speaking of amateurs, NASA is soliciting reports from amateur radio operators to listen for NanoSail-D’s beacon signal at 437.270 MHz to verify that NanoSail-D is operating.

Hot rain!
I imagine about 10 million degrees or so . . .
Hope you feel better Glenn.
