COMMENT:
                      LASCO C2/C3 shows a frontside-directed partial halo in the south-west
                      direction. NOAA reports a C7.6 class flare in AR 3939 [S19W58] starting
                      @ 18:27 UTC. SolarSoft details that the flare appears to be associated
                      with a pair of LDEs in the south west quadrant in active regions 13939
                      along with an AR 13941 connection post-eruption arcades can be seen
                      in GOES-16 SUVI 171 angstroms along the west limb.

                      GOES-P Proton Flux shows a rapid augmentation of proton flux @ 20:15
                      UTC, exceeding 10 proton flux units @ 22:15 UTC. The proton flux peaks
                      at 20 pfu @ 00:55 UTC on January 5th.


Preliminary UCMEO velocity and position measurements are delivered first.
