I'm not in position to grab an image, but I just noticed a huge, detailed prom!

Yes, it appeared on March 19 and has now been rotated into fuller view over the eastern horizon today, March 21 (check the GONG show thread starting March 18). Just watched it in my Lunt 60 DS. Huge! Detailed!

Me too.  It has thinned out and become a complete arch.  An animation would be cool.

Working on getting ready to post 3 hours and 18 minutes of this beauty.  Not the greatest conditions but the prom was nice and thick so shows up well.
