MinYoongi Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 thanks well i mean it being wide would still only make it a glancing blow right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinYoongi Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 "Early indications are that a coronal mass ejection (CME) will be associated with this event. Due to the location towards the west limb, most of the ejected material should be directed away from our planet. Coronagraph imagery will be required to determine if a glancing blow will be possible." (Source : Solarham) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tniickck Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 even a glancing blow is fine, we got a Type 2 radio sweep btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philalethes Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Significantly steeper rise in the electrons now than from the one earlier today, we'll probably see the same for the proton flux eventually; S3 sounds a bit too optimistic, but another S2 wouldn't surprise me at this point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cgrant26 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) LASCO just refreshed. Definitely a CME although not super intense looking. Looks like it might be a full halo though. (barely) Edited August 5, 2023 by cgrant26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesterface23 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 At best we might be able to get an asymmetric halo. A glancing blow impact would be most likely if it does arrive at Earth. Still all to be set in stone in coronagraph imagery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cgrant26 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Honestly, the CME from around 07:00 UTC was a more impressive looking CME than this one. That one unfortunately wasn't Earth directed. I'm anxious to see LASCO C3 in the next few hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEAurora Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 So far, based on my initial read of SUVI and lasco imagery, I give this CME a resounding, “eh.” Center disk would have been solid, but I wouldn’t expect much (if anything) geomagnetic wise from this.

Jesterface23 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 (edited) The CME seems pretty good overall, maybe 28-40 hours travel time to 1AU. As far as the Earth directed component, it is still a glancing blow, but it looks a lot better than the CME that launched this morning. A travel time to Earth of around 60 hours seems possible at this point, but there isn't enough imagery for a full forecast yet.

Jesterface23 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 (edited) A small eastern CME blocks some of this CME in coronagraph imagery, but I think the travel time to L1 may be within 54-72 hours. I'd estimate G2 unlikely due to it being a glancing blow, but possible. Edited August 6, 2023 by Jesterface23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
