✦ Synopsis

We report on the ÿrst comprehensive numerical simulation of a space weather event, starting with the generation of a CME and subsequently following this transient solar wind disturbance as it evolves into a magnetic cloud and travels through interplanetary space towards Earth where its interaction with the terrestrial magnetosphere-ionosphere system is also predicted as part of the simulation.
