## Summary:
BETA PRODUCT. ENSEMBLE PRODUCT IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT MODE. PLEASE LET US KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR MODIFICATIONS.
Ensemble modeling update on CME with ID 2026-01-18T18:09:00-CME-001 (see previous notifications 20260118-AL-005, 20260119-AL-001). Based on heliospheric ensemble modeling carried out at the Moon to Mars Space Weather Analysis Office, it is estimated that the CME may impact NASA missions near Earth. Out of 24 ensemble members (see notes section), 24 (100%) indicate impact at NASA missions near Earth. Ensemble simulations indicate that the leading edge of the CME will reach NASA missions near Earth between about 2026-01-20T00:07Z and 2026-01-20T03:47Z (average arrival 2026-01-20T01:50Z). The ensemble-based forecast indicates that there is a 100% chance for the maximum Kp index to be in the 8-8 range (severe).

## Notes:
The CME event with ID 2026-01-18T18:09:00-CME-001 is also predicted to impact Juno at 2026-01-29T09:14Z, Solar Orbiter at 2026-01-19T17:18Z, OSIRIS-APEX at 2026-01-20T13:00Z (glancing blow), and STEREO A at 2026-01-21T04:00Z (glancing blow) (plus minus 7 hours) (see notifications 20260118-AL-005, 20260119-AL-001).
This CME event (2026-01-18T18:09:00-CME-001) is associated with X1.9 flare from Active Region 14341 (S15E20) with ID 2026-01-18T17:27:00-FLR-001 which peaked at 2026-01-18T18:09Z (see notification 20260118-AL-004). It is also associated with SEP at SOHO: COSTEP 15.8-39.8 MeV with ID 2026-01-18T22:33:00-SEP-001 (see notification 20260118-AL-006), SEP at GOES-P with ID 2026-01-18T22:55:00-SEP-001 (see notification 20260118-AL-007), SEP at SOHO: COSTEP 28.2-50.1 MeV with ID 2026-01-19T02:57:00-SEP-001 (see notification 20260119-AL-002), and SEP at STEREO A with ID 2026-01-19T10:58:00-SEP-001 (see notification 20260119-AL-003).
Ensemble CME modeling at M2M is performed by building sets of initial CME parameters and carrying out separate simulations for each set. This approach allows a mapping of initial CME parameter uncertainties into a statistical characterization of CME arrival times and impact at locations of interest.
Description of links: For each location, the first link shows the WSA-ENLIL+Cone model animation for the median CME input parameters, the second link shows the probabilistic distribution of predicted arrival times histogram, and the third link shows a stack plot of the WSA-ENLIL+Cone modeled magnetic field, velocity, density, and temperature for all ensemble members.

## Summary:
Update on CME with ID 2026-01-18T18:09:00-CME-001 (see previous notification 20260118-AL-005). Based on preliminary analysis by the Moon to Mars Space Weather Analysis Office and heliospheric modeling carried out at NASA Community Coordinated Modeling Center, it is estimated that this CME may affect Juno, Solar Orbiter, OSIRIS-APEX (glancing blow), and STEREO A (glancing blow). The leading edge of the CME will reach Juno at 2026-01-29T09:14Z and Solar Orbiter at 2026-01-19T17:18Z, and its flank may reach OSIRIS-APEX at 2026-01-20T13:00Z and STEREO A at 2026-01-21T04:00Z (plus minus 7 hours).
The simulation also indicates that the CME may impact NASA missions near Earth. Simulations indicate that the leading edge of the CME will reach NASA missions near Earth at about 2026-01-20T01:07Z (plus minus 7 hours). The roughly estimated expected range of the maximum Kp index is 8-8 (severe).
Updated CME parameters are (O-type):
Start time of the event: 2026-01-18T18:09Z.
Estimated speed: ~1473 km/s.
Estimated opening half-angle: 46 deg.
Direction (lon./lat.): -22/-6 in Heliocentric Earth Equatorial coordinates.

## Summary:
O-type CME detected by STEREO A / GOES.
Start time of the event: 2026-01-18T18:09Z.
Estimated speed: ~1431 km/s.
Estimated opening half-angle: 41 deg.
Direction (lon./lat.): -27/-3 in Heliocentric Earth Equatorial coordinates.
Activity ID: 2026-01-18T18:09:00-CME-001
Based on preliminary analysis by the Moon to Mars Space Weather Analysis Office and heliospheric modeling carried out at NASA Community Coordinated Modeling Center, it is estimated that this CME may affect Juno, Solar Orbiter, and OSIRIS-APEX (glancing blow). The flank of the CME will reach Juno at 2026-01-29T16:01Z, Solar Orbiter at 2026-01-19T18:15Z, and OSIRIS-APEX at 2026-01-20T17:00Z (plus minus 7 hours).
The simulation also indicates that the CME may impact NASA missions near Earth. Simulations indicate that the leading edge of the CME will reach NASA missions near Earth at about 2026-01-20T02:18Z (plus minus 7 hours). The roughly estimated expected range of the maximum Kp index is 8-8 (severe).

## Summary:
Significantly elevated energetic electron fluxes in the Earth's outer radiation belt. GOES "greater than 2.0 MeV" integral electron flux remains elevated, recently crossing the threshold of 1000 pfu at 2026-01-18T06:10Z.
The elevated energetic electron flux levels observed since 2026-01-12T10:05Z (see notifications 20260112-AL-002, 20260114-AL-001, and 20260116-AL-001) are likely caused by the combined arrival of CME with ID 2026-01-08T05:53:00-CME-001 (see notifications 20260108-AL-001 and 20260109-AL-002), CME with ID 2026-01-08T15:48:00-CME-001 (see notification 20260109-AL-003), CME with ID 2026-01-08T17:00:00-CME-001 (see notifications 20260109-AL-001 and 20260109-AL-003), and CME with ID 2026-01-08T17:12:00-CME-001 (see notification 20260109-AL-003).
NASA spacecraft at GEO, MEO and other orbits passing through or in the vicinity of the Earth's outer radiation belt can be impacted.
Activity ID: 2026-01-12T10:05:00-RBE-001.
## Notes:
The arrival of these CMEs is also associated with geomagnetic storm with ID 2026-01-10T18:00:00-GST-001 (see notifications 20260110-AL-004, 20260110-AL-005) and with magnetopause crossing with ID 2026-01-11T05:56:00-MPC-001 (see notification 20260111-AL-002).
