Prediction for CME (2026-07-30T16:53:00-CME-001)
CME Observed Time: 2026-07-30T16:53ZDONKI Link: https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/DONKI/view/CME/47871/-1
CME Note: CME observed as a NE halo in STEREO A COR2, and a NW halo in GOES CCOR-1 partially blocked by the pylon. SOHO LASCO C2/C3 not available in real-time due to a downlink gap. The source is associated with an M1.9 flare from AR 14492 peaking at 2026-07-30T17:00Z, observed in SDO AIA 131. This eruption is also observed as filament ejecta in SDO AIA 304 first lifting as early as 2026-07-30T15:18Z, more eruptively after 2026-07-15:43Z. SDO AIA 171/193 observe brightening, dimming, field line movement, EUV wave, and post-eruptive arcades. | Arrival: Characterized by a sharp increase in magnetic field components with Btotal jumping from ~4.4nT to ~14.3 at 2026-08-02T11:28Z, reaching a maximum B_total of 21.5nT at 2026-08-02T14:56Z and maximum southward B_z of -17.41nT at 2026-08-02T15:02Z. There is a corresponding sharp increase in speed observed from ~290 km/s to ~360 km/s, reaching a maximum speed ~430 km/s. Temperature also increases from ~34,000 K to ~313,000 K further reaching ~479.6k K, with density increasing from ~3 p/cc to ~37 p/cc. This signature is associated with the arrival of CME: 2026-07-30T16:53Z.

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.
