14:06 UT  HALO		Event began in C2 at 14:06 UT as an asymmetric loop front 
		with core centered over PA 269 degrees. The CME consisted of 3 components 
		in C2; main loop with core in SW at PA 261, the expanding loop to the south, 
		and a burst in the NNW at PA 333, expanding at approximately the same 
		acceleration. Material is seen from PA 124 - 9 degrees for a total coverage 
		of 245 degrees wide.  The event continues into the C3 field beginning 
		at 15:42 UT.   The CME tracked through the field to the last frame 
		while in progress at 21:42 UT to 17.9 Rsun. Speeds. 397.4. Km/sec at 
		position angle 261 degrees.  Click Here for HALO report and movies
