We analyze ground- and space-based observations of the major eruptive flare and associated Moreton wave of 6 December 2006. The Moreton wave spanned 270° in azimuth and exhibited a variable speed time profile as it propagated away from the source region. The Hα wave traveled 1.2 Rsun from the S06E63 site of the eruption and white-light flare toward the southwest in 15 minutes where it disrupted a large quiescent filament. A preceding coronal wave was observed in a single He 10830 Å image. Potential field analysis of the active region magnetic fields and a comparison of ISOON images of the eruptive flare in line-center Hα with off-band images of the wave indicate that the Moreton wave was driven by a coronal mass ejection.
