Points Of Interest

2004/10/15 (Friday)

00:30 UT  N East	Narrow and faint loop front. It fades close to the 
			inner edge of C3.	

03:06 UT  W Limb	Small and diffuse loop front that quickly fades.

03:54 UT  SS West	Relatively thick jet-like front that fades throughout C2.
  
06:54 UT  N West	Fan-like front. It fades close to the inner edge of C3.

07:54 UT  ES East	Ragged loop front with a ragged inner structure. It
			fades throughout C3.

15:54 UT  W Limb	Diffuse and ragged loop front that fades close to the
			inner edge of C3.

00:06 UT  NN East	Very slow development of a diffuse expanding loop front 
			followed by a system of faint expanding loops that span
			later all above the N Pole. It is difficult to give an 
			exact time of first appearance. The diffuse front seems 
			to have started late on previous day.

00:06 UT  N West	Very slow development of a system of loops along the
			streamer.	 

15:54 UT  W Limb	Ragged loop front partly superposed in the LOS with
			event at 00:06 UT on NW. By 19:54 UT, a not well defined
			faint front develops much faster than the slow system
			of loops apparently affecting its development. By ~
			06:06 UT on next day an apparent (not well discerned)
			front seems to strongly affect its expansion rate.	     

21:30 UT  N East	Elongated loop front moving faster than the event 
			reported to start at 00:06 UT.		  

2004/10/17 (Sunday)

09:54 UT  ES East  	Gusty outflow in the form of small ragged fronts.

19:31 UT  NN West	Diffuse and narrow fan-like front that fades throughout 
			C2.

21:30 UT  E Limb	Wide ragged loop front.
