Happy New Year!!!!
W Limb Infalling material all along the day. 00:54 UT E Limb Wide ragged loop front just appearing above the E Limb. An extremely faint and diffuse loop-like extension can be guessed above the S Pole by the time. By 01:31 UT, a big CME can be seen spanning almost all around the eastern limb with very faint extensions on the S Pole and western hemisphere. The event is first seen in C3 at 01:42 UT above the E Limb with very faint extensions already surrounding the occulting disk. The mean plane-of-sky speed of the LE of the CME (based on C3 data) at PA 87 was ~ 800 km/sec (showing practically no acceleration). Gusty outflow on ESE afterward, all along the day and well into next day. GOES reported a X1.7 X-ray flare from NOAA AR 10715 (N06E34) between 00:01 - 00:39 UT, with peak emission at 00:31 UT. EIT 195 images show a brightening on the aforementioned AR starting at 00:12 UT, clear signature of the X 1.7 X-ray flare. An intensity disturbance (wave) can be seen afterward with epicenter in the aforementioned AR; also a dimming region mainly to W and S of the AR. In summary, the event has therefore been determined as an asymmetric 'full' halo event, frontsided. 21:30 UT W Limb Diffuse spray-like front (asymmetric loop-like feature brighter to S).
W Limb Infalling material all along the day. 07:54 UT S Pole Diffuse curved feature developing toward SSW. It fades in C3 (very faint). 09:30 UT E Limb Very faint and diffuse loop front that fades close to the inner edge of C3. 10:34 UT W Limb Spray-like front. It fades throughout C3. Expanding (and very faint) loop-like feature to N. 12:30 UT WN West "Pair formation". Separation point at ~ 4.55 solar radii (at PA ~ 293).
W Limb Infalling material during the first half of the UT day. Some small blobs coming out. 04:54 UT E Limb Very diffuse brightening develops that extends up to the N Pole in the next couple of images is followed on ESE by an expanding ragged loop front. Structures on N are seen to be pushed toward NNW. By 06:54 UT another faint loop front follows. GOES reported a C3.8 X-ray flare from NOAA AR 10715 (N05E07) between 04:02 - 04:48 UT with peak emission at 04:22 UT.
