2. CME

2.1. A. Candidate A
A.1. LASCO
#CME 2013/11/28 03:24 UT (from CDAW)
angle: > 103; velocity: 362

A.2. STEREO:
SEEDS's movie is not available; wide and moderate CME in COR1's FOV (frontside moving CME)

A.3. AIA & GOES
Eruption from AR 11906 (~S21E20), not associated with any major flare (onset 2013/11/27 ~23:54)

A.4. Comment:
Could be the source of disturbance of 2013/11/30. One of the concerns regarding this source is its slow speed; V_cme in COR2-B FOV is only 348 km/s, but V_icme is ~500 km/s.
The other concern is ICME's high Qfe, as the CME is associated with C1.5 class flare.


3. Other Comments
GMU's ENLIL run shows the disturbance due to CME around the time (2013/11/27) reaching the Earth, however the ejecta missed the Earth completely.

SW index: 2
