That CME is even slower than I thought-
NOAA-24 hr Summary...
Solar activity was at low levels. The largest event of the period, a
C3/1f flare, erupted from Region 1817 (S21W24, Esc/beta) at 14/1655 UTC.
This region was also responsible for the majority of the other low level
C-class flares throughout the period. It continued to exhibit a
horizontal shear line, but also continued to show signs of decay. The
other spot groups were either stable or decaying.
SDO imagery observed a
fairly extensive eruptive prominence that lifted off the southwest limb
at approximately 14/2145 UTC. Initial WSA Enlil analysis of Lasco and
STEREO imagery indicates the associated coronal mass ejection (CME) was
slow (~350 km/s) with the majority of the ejecta moving just south of
the ecliptic plane. Further analysis of this CME is ongoing. No other
Earth-directed CMEs were observed throughout the period.
