🚨 **Space Weather Alert: CME**

📅 **Date**: 2025-04-24

🕒 **Time**: 00:48Z UTC

📖 **Description**: CME first seen to the SE by SOHO LASCO C2 beginning at 2025-04-24T00:48Z, as well as by SOHO LASCO C3 and STEREO A COR2 in later frames, however a majority of this CME is blocked by the pylon in SOHO LASCO C3. There is no clear source seen on the disk for this event, but fits between SOHO LASCO and STEREO A COR2 suggest a far sided source. This CME does not have a very clearly defined front.
