Prediction for CME (2025-08-05T16:48:00-CME-001)
CME Observed Time: 2025-08-05T16:48ZiSWAS Layout URL: https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/DONKI/view/CME/40388/-1
CME Note: Faint CME seen to the W in SOHO LASCO C2/C3 and GOES CCOR-1, and NE in STEREO A COR2. Source is the M4.4 flare from AR 14168 centered (N04W07) starting around 2025-08-05T15:50Z as seen in SDO AIA 131, 171, 193, 304 imagery. Dimming is observed southwest of the flare site in SDO AIA 171 and 193 imagery, and post-eruptive arcades begin to form in the flare location around 2025-08-05T16:50Z. This CME may have been deflected towards the Northwest, as this Active Region is situation to the Northwest of a large coronal hole. CME Arrival: This CME likely had a glancing blow at L1 around 2025-08-08T23:46Z. This was preceded by a CIR starting around 2025-08-08T06:30Z and associated coronal hole high speed stream. Arrival characterized by a rotation in magnetic field components, including Bz reaching approximately -14.8nT. Characterized by a decrease in temperature and no clear change in density during the CME's passage. Solar wind speeds decreased from approximately 560 km/s to approximately 480 km/s, and remained around 480 km/s until 2025-08-09T15:25Z, where coronal hole high speed stream influence likely continued.

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.
