Solar Storms at CME Halo

SOHO LASCO

Right now

The most recent data we hold from SOHO LASCO arrived 4 hours ago, and this point is not in it. We record detections, not passes: an absence is not proof that nothing is there.

Reported by SOHO LASCO 170 days ago.

What the source measured

SOHO LASCO reported: Coronal Mass Ejection detected at 2026-03-20T12:38Z. Linear speed: 1095 km/s. Half-angle: 42°. Full halo CME — potential global geomagnetic impact. Partial halo CME visible in SOHO LASCO C2/C3 and GOES CCOR-1 imagery. The CME is also visible to the west in STEREO A COR2 imagery. The source is likely farsided.

How we know

One source: SOHO LASCO. Not yet confirmed by a second, independent source.

Our own score for this event is 15 out of 100, at 50 % confidence.

The score is ours, computed from intensity, exposed population and local history — not the source’s.

Computed under scoring rules v1. Rows carrying other versions were judged by different rules and are not directly comparable.
