Prediction for CME (2024-03-23T01:25:00-CME-001)

CME Observed Time: 2024-03-23T01:25Z
iSWAS Layout URL: https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/DONKI/view/CME/29715/-1
CME Note: Bright partial halo CME first seen to the north in SOHO LASCO C2 (appearing a few timestamps before the second northern front of 2024-03-23T01:48Z CME and earlier than the faint full halo to the SW). The CME is associated with the X1.1-class flare from Active Region 3614 centered ~N25E07 and with associated eruption seen as EUV wave in SDO AIA 193, and as a NE-SW oriented large area of dimming/post eruptive arcades centered ~around Active Region 3614. X-class flare was accompanied by/contributed to by concurrent flare from Active Region 3615 (S14E15). Combined arrival of this CME with CME: 2024-03-23T01:48Z was detected at L1 by DSCOVR and ACE at 2024-03-24T14:10Z. The arrival signature is characterized by sharp increase in B-total from 6nT to 26nT, reaching 33nT and by a jump in solar wind speed from about 550 km/s to 851 km/s, with a peak of 880 km/s and an increase in density and temperature seen at ~14:10Z.
CME Shock Arrival Time: 2024-03-24T14:10Z
Observed Geomagnetic Storm Parameters due to CME:

## Summary:

Multiple CMEs have been detected as follows:
1: O-type CME detected by STEREO A / SOHO. 

Start time of the event: 2024-03-23T01:25Z.

Estimated speed: ~1613 km/s.

Estimated opening half-angle: 41 deg.

Direction (lon./lat.): 2/22 in Heliocentric Earth Equatorial coordinates.

Activity ID: 2024-03-23T01:25:00-CME-001

2: O-type CME detected by STEREO A / SOHO. 

Start time of the event: 2024-03-23T01:48Z.

Estimated speed: ~1572 km/s.

Estimated opening half-angle: 45 deg.

Direction (lon./lat.): 5/5 in Heliocentric Earth Equatorial coordinates.

Activity ID: 2024-03-23T01:48:00-CME-001

Based on preliminary analysis by the Moon to Mars Space Weather Analysis Office and heliospheric modeling carried out at NASA Community Coordinated Modeling Center, it is estimated that the CMEs may affect Solar Orbiter, STEREO A, and Psyche (minor impact).  The leading edge of the CMEs will reach Solar Orbiter at 2024-03-23T14:01Z, STEREO A at 2024-03-24T15:36Z, and Psyche at 2024-03-27T22:00Z (plus minus 7 hours). 
  
The simulation also indicates that the CMEs may impact NASA missions near Earth. Simulations indicate that the leading edge of the CMEs will reach NASA missions near Earth at about 2024-03-24T17:55Z (plus minus 7 hours). The roughly estimated expected range of the maximum Kp index is 6-8 (moderate to severe).
