“With a trio of smaller satellites that can each detect 26 wavelengths of light, the Landsat Next mission is expected to look very different from its predecessors that have been observing Earth for 50 years. This new plan for Landsat Next, a joint mission of NASA and the U.S. Geological Survey, is designed to provide more frequent, and finer resolution, data of the changing surface of Earth…”

Still looking for a #weather applications for #android which properly shows #synoptic overview maps of analysis and forecast. preferably #FLOSS. any recommendations? should include at least sfc-pressure, retop, abtop. ideally also a composite of Retop / ThetaAe with pressure and 500 hPa geopotential.

Check out this prominent polar low, with a calm eye and several bands of deep convection, as it moves south across the western North Sea. The forecast (ICON here) is still a bit uncertain, though. The small-scale storm field with hurricane-force winds provides a sign. wave height of about 6 meters and thus poses a danger to shipping.

Interesting feature in the ICON model on Thursday night over the North Sea. It looks like the model simulates a tropical-like warm seclusion, a polar low. It is a mesoscale phenomenon, characterized by a warm, nearly cloud-free core and spirals of high-level convection around it.

Happy to announce our paper about significant #tornado|es in C Europe. It discusses synoptic + mesoscale conditions as well as the convective environment + presents findings about typical aspects of nowcasting using remote sensing:

You can also find online a study about the #tornado outbreak on 20 May 2022 with eigth tornadoes (3x F2, 5xF1) and how it fits the findings of our study: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1glzNtufjgymHJNCbeKTGCb0hEQRJAcsYLzzA0_asZqk/edit?usp=sharing

Wow, I am quite happy and surprised that I have already 100 followers in #fediverse less than one month after joining. If you are interested in climatologies, #synoptic, #severeweather and #tornado|s - short #weather - like me, you are invited to follow me! #meteorology
