SUMMARY OF THE EVENT: A CME hit the Earth magnetic field at 18:00 UTC the 24th of May 2013 (source: www.sidc.be). As a consequence, the Total Electron Content (TEC) of the ionosphere over Europe decreased until the 26th of May 2013.

Figure 1 shows the time evolution of the Vertical Total Electron Content (VTEC) (in red) extracted from the near-real time VTEC maps at 3 different latitudes (Figure 2): a) Northern part (top), b) Brussels (middle) and c) Southern part (bottom). Also shown, the model based on the median from the 15 previous days (in grey). About this event, see also:
