LF: CME with a "Glancing pass near Earth"?

["Larry Kayser" <kayser@sympatico.ca>]

Greetings All:

First, thanks for looking at this.  I have a strong interest in figuring out
how to tell if a CME from the Sun is going to come within  about 7.5 Million
miles of the earth.  A second level of information needed is to understand
the energy level of the particles that are going by us at a given time.

A really great end game for this inquiry would be to understand how to look
at a CME event and to quickly determine if the CME will come within about
7.5 Million miles of the earth.

Any help will certainly be appreciated.
