Comment Section

A good ICME, strong CME source, however, "stealth" surface signature (J. Zhang)
- A good example of "stealth" CME: bright CME, but no or very weak surface signature (in terms of no flare, dimming, filament eruption etc)
This event has a very difficult to distinguish source region, if you look very closely at S22 W38 just before 00:00 UT on the 10/05 it is possible to see a very small disturbance on the Sun, especially in 304 Angstroms. (Hess)
M. Temmer: clear on-disk signatures - movie from SDO (October 4, 15UT, central south) - are visible. It is a "silent" CME, hard to catch for space weather forecasters, but not a "stealth" in sense of no solar surface signatures at all.

timing - evolution from SDO FoV to coronagraph - is an issue and needs to be looked at in detail

A combination of SWEPAM and MAG data from the ACE Satellite:
