Points Of Interest

2004/08/06 (Friday)

00:54 UT  E Limb	Elongated and extremely faint expanding feature.
	
09:54 UT  W Limb	Slow development of a loop front, with a diffuse 
			helmet-shaped front ahead of it. By 20:30 UT (C2 time)
			it is clearly seen as a well developed flux-rope CME 
			(LE at the end of the C2 FOV). Twisted trailing material.
			Much gusty outflow well into next day.

15:06 UT  E Limb	Elongated and faint loop front developing slightly 
			toward ENE.

2004/08/07 (Saturday)

05:30 UT  N East	Bright ragged loop front with structured interior and
			twisted trailing material. Gusty outflow well into 
			next day.

15:30 UT  W Limb	In the gusty outflow, faint elongated loop front.
				

2004/08/08 (Sunday)

	  W Limb	Gusty outflow continues.

08:54 UT  W Limb	Ragged loop front developing jointly with following
			event. EIT Fe XII running diference images show 
			an extremely faint ejection a little bit to N of NOAA 
			AR 0655 starting at around 05:48 UT.

08:54 UT  HALO		Bright and wide loop front above the E Limb with  
			extensions surrounding completely the C2 occultor 
			(fainter above the NW Limb). A fainter front can be 
			discerned a little bit ahead of the bright loop front
			above the E limb. The event is first seen in C3 at 
			09:18 UT appearing above the E Limb. Faint extensions 
			can be discerned by the time surrounding the C3 occutor
			completely. EIT Fe XII running difference images show 
			the development of a backsided CME above the ENE Limb
			between ~ 08:24 - 10:38 UT. Faint intensity disturbance
			travelling to S, above the limb. No significant X-ray
			activity by the time.
		
09:54 UT  S West	In the HALO aftermath, a wide ragged loop front can be  
			discerned, one leg (the brighter one) on SE. A narrower
			one follows on SW at 10:34 UT.	

12:30 UT  EN East	Loop front that quickly fades. Followed by another
			loop front at ~ 14:54 UT. By the time this second
			front fades (~ 17:54 UT) another loop front becomes
			visible, already at the end of the C2 FOV. This last one
			fades throughout C3.

16:06 UT  SS West	Jet-like front that quickly fades.

21:54 UT  S East	Ragged and not well defined loop front with structured
			interior.

22:30 UT  E Limb	Faint loop front developing toward ESE.

2004/08/09 (Monday)

00:30 UT  S East	Curved feature expanding towards S.

03:30 UT  S East	Ragged loop front followed at ~ 05:30 UT by another one.
	
05:06 UT  E Limb	Faint expanding loop front. Another one can be guessed
			ahead of it.

06:30 UT  WN West	Fast spray-like front followed at 09:06 UT by an 
			elongated and expanding loop front.
