Solar Storms at CME Halo (Earth-directed)
Reported by SOHO LASCO 46 days ago.
What the source measured
SOHO LASCO reported: Coronal Mass Ejection detected at 2026-08-08T08:15Z. Linear speed: 734 km/s. Half-angle: 41°. Full halo CME — potential global geomagnetic impact. ENLIL model indicates Earth-directed component. Filament eruption CME observed to the SW in GOES CCOR-1 and as a SE halo in STEREO A COR2. Not observed in real-time in SOHO LASCO C2/C3 due to DSN gap starting 2026-08-08T05:00Z. The source is a long
How we know
One source: SOHO LASCO. Not yet confirmed by a second, independent source.
Our own score for this event is 22 out of 100.
This is our versioned heuristic index, not source severity or a calibrated probability. Urban PEI does not count unique people.
Computed under scoring rules v1. Rows carrying other versions were judged by different rules and are not directly comparable.
