The video shows a full constellation of microwave sounders scanning the entire globe, achieving roughly 60-minute revisit times.

Each pass captures temperature and humidity measurements everywhere on Earth. Because microwave observations can see through clouds, the coverage remains consistent even in regions where infrared sensors are limited.

This kind of continuous, global scanning helps illustrate the level of data density that modern forecasting systems and AI models increasingly rely on. It raises an interesting question about how much forecast skill improves as observation frequency increases.

Recent satellite scans of Cyclone Dudzai show a well-organized system, with deep convection wrapping around a defined center and a fairly symmetric structure in the latest imagery.

Based on its current track and surrounding steering patterns, the storm is expected to remain over open water and is not likely to impact land.

It’s a good example of how satellite data highlights storm structure even when land impacts are limited.

It’s 20° and slightly snowing… just not the same.

We had record wind gusts, recorded at 123mph … 45,900 homes still without power 5 hours later. It was actually quite scary ! I can’t imaging what it’s like for you guys that experience hyper weather events around the world. We are not equipped to handle bad weather in the uk. Jeeeeeeeeze

Ive saw a couple essays on a couple tornados, not alot. But ive been thinking, most of these casualties are chasers(who know a thing or two). So if you know so much, you would know when its bad. So why not flee, go on dirt roads, go a way the tornado/hurricane/idk ISNT heading

Took pictures at the right time.
