Coronal holes are the sources of the solar wind and, according to recent YOHKOH observations, may undergo rapid changes in association with explosive solar activity. Rapid changes in a hole's structure will produce rapid changes in the characteristics of the wind emerging from it and, in the particular case of a sudden enlargement of the hole's base, a sudden increase in the wind velocity can be produced which will lead to the formation of an interplanetary shock. We discuss the characteristics of shocks formed in such a way and compare them with the observed characteristics of shocks in interplanetary space.
