EIT and LASCO observed 2 full halo CMEs on Friday November 22, 2001. This
message will pertain to the first. This event was first seen in C2 at
20:58 UT as a bright loop front with core over the South West limb. Event
was in progress and with the high velocity only 1 frame was taken in the
C2 field. Material was seen at all postion angles while traveling through
the C3 field. Plane-of-sky speeds were averaged to 1246 km/sec at
position angle 243 to 30Rs.
EIT sees a bright flare event starting at 20:24 UT. This event is most
likely associated with the M4 class x-ray flare of AR 9698 located in the
SW at [S25; W67]. An EIT wave spanning the lower quadrent is seen as a
post event loop arcade follows by 21:48 UT. This event is problably the
event seen in Lasco.
Images and movies of the combination of these 2 events due to closeness in
time are located on the Lasco servers at:
