Description

I was actually imaged a different region of the sun when I discovered that an X1.1 Flare had erupted at AR3217 yesterday at about 15:43 UTC.   I slewed the scope to the area at 16:12 and caught the development of a tunnel of post flare loops that formed and then dissipated quite quickly within the 45 minute duration of this animation.  Seeing was variable during the captures.
