Prediction for CME (2021-04-22T05:23:00-CME-001)

CME Observed Time: 2021-04-22T05:23Z
iSWAS Layout URL: https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/DONKI/view/CME/16772/-1
CME Note: Associated with an eruption visible in STEREO A EUVI 195 and SDO AIA 171/193 beginning 2021-04-22T04:21Z, and associated with C3.8 flare beginning at 2021-04-22T04:10 and peaking at 2021-04-22T04:35Z. There is some northeastern deflection apparent in the available EUV imagery. Arrival signaled by sudden rise in Btotal from 5 to 8 nT at 2021-04-2422:24Z, followed shortly by an increase in Btotal to above 10 nT, accompanied by jumps in velocity, density, and temperature as measured by DSCOVR.

Observed Geomagnetic Storm Parameters due to CME:
Max Kp: 5.0

Predicted Arrival Time: 2021-04-25T00:00Z

Solar Activity

.24 hr Summary...
Solar activity was low. Region 2816 (S24W18, Cro/beta) produced multiple
C-class flares, including a C3/1f flare at 22/0435 UTC. This flare was
associated with Type II and Type IV radio sweeps and a partial-halo CME
seen in SOHO LASCO C2/C3 coronagraph imagery. The CME was modeled and it
was determined to have an Earth-directed component that is likely to
pass Earth on day 3 (25 Apr) of the forecast. No other Earth-directed
CMEs were noted.

CCMC Rules of the Road: CCMC requests that users notify the CCMC, CME model/technique developers and submitting forecasters/researchers before performing event and validation studies with data from the CME Arrival Time Scoreboard. It is recommended that such studies be performed with the knowledge and collaboration of developers and submitting forecasters/researchers.
