11 Exploration Physics International, Inc. “Bastille Day” 2000 Event 11 “Fearless Forecast” issued at 20:31 UT on July 14, 2000: [Dryer et al., Solar Phys., 2001]. “Strong shock will arrive at 15 UT on July 15, 2000.”

12 “Fearless Forecast” Metrics Exploration Physics International, Inc. 12 Contingency Table

13 “Fearless Forecast” Metrics Feb. 1997 - Oct. 2000 Success rate > 50 % False alarm rate ~ 50% Hit/Miss RatioSTOA best for strong shocks HAF best for medium, weak shocks Heidke skill score~.15 -.20 RMS error  T (SAT PRED - SAT OBS ) ~ 11 - 12 hours Exploration Physics International, Inc. 13 173 events, 68 observed shocks

14 Exploration Physics International, Inc. Solar Cycle 23 - Lessons Learned 14 CIRs produce shocks. Dec. 25, 1998, 20 UT

15 Exploration Physics International, Inc. Solar Cycle 23 - Lessons Learned Initial shock speed is the most important input to the SAT prediction. SAT forecast skill is best near Central Meridian. SAT forecast skill is worst for limb events because Metric Type II speeds are too low. 15
