Prediction for CME (2023-12-24T13:25:00-CME-001)
CME Observed Time: 2023-12-24T13:25ZiSWAS Layout URL: https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/DONKI/view/CME/28321/-1
CME Note: This CME is visible to the north in SOHO LASCO C2/C3 and STEREO A COR2 coronagraph imagery. The source is a large filament eruption spanning N45W20 to N35W55 which begins to lift-off, appearing to deflect northward, around 2023-12-24T12:45Z as seen in SDO AIA 131, 171, 193, 304 imagery. Post-eruptive brightening is also visible in SDO AIA 171 and 193 imagery starting around 13:30Z. Arrival signature: Likely but not characteristic CME arrival/sheath with magnetic field enhancement to just below 8nT, followed at ~2023-12-27T20Z by a likely start of a flux rope showing smooth rotation of magnetic field components and possibly indicating a glancing blow from a CME since components run in parallel. The arrival time might be even earlier since there is a data gap in DSCOVR from 2023-12-27T07:16Z to 08:26Z (also overlapping by an even larger gap in ACE data). This arrival could alternatively be attributed to the arrival of 2023-12-24T16:12Z CME.

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.
