2. CME
2.1. A. Candidate A
A.1. LASCO:
#CME 2013/05/22 13:25 UT, halo (from CDAW)
angle: 360, velocity: 1466 km/s
SEEDS vel C2: 693 km/s

A.2. STEREO:
Major CME on both COR2-A and COR2-B. COR2-B suggests that CME was not moving forward (mostly).


A.3. AIA & GOES:
M5.0 class flare from NOAA AR 11745 (N14W87). Flare started around 13:08:00 UT on 2013/05/22.

A.4. Comment:
Likely the source. Though it was a limb event, WDA suggest that some effect can be observed around the Earth.



2.1. B. Candidate B
B.1. LASCO:
#CME 2013/05/22 08:48 UT, partial halo (from CDAW)
angle: 210, velocity: 687 km/s
SEEDS vel C2: 529 km/s (09:12 UT)

B.2. STEREO:
Major CME on both COR2-A and COR2-B. COR2-B suggests that CME was not moving forward.


B.3. AIA & GOES:
Limb event (~N35), maybe one foot of erupting structure was behind the western limb.


B.4. Comment:
Less likely the source of disturbance due to the location of the eruption.




2.1. C. Candidate C
C.1. LASCO:
#CME 2013/05/23 16:48 UT, partial halo (from CDAW)
angle: 123, velocity: 266 km/s
SEEDS vel C2: 286 km/s

C.2. STEREO:
Major CME on both COR2-A and COR2-B. COR2-B suggests that CME was not moving forward (mostly).


C.3. AIA & GOES:
limb event

C.4. Comment:
Unlikely the source due to the time of occurrence and speed of the CME.
