Both GOES-East and GOES-West are capable of having up to two mesoscale scanning regions. The satellite’s ABI will scan each of these regions once per minute, or it can scan one region every 30 seconds. This results in satellite imagery that can update faster than most weather radars!

Radar operates by sending out a radio wave pulse that will interact with objects and 'reflect' some portion of that signal back to the radar reciever. Reflectivity, put simply is the amount of return that the radar sees at a given azimuth and range.

Correlation Coefficient (or CC) is a dual-polarization product made possible by the radar transmitting two pulses; one oriented horizontally and the other vertically. CC is evaluated by comparing the similarity or dissimilarity between pulses or scans meaning this is a product that takes time into consideration.
Meteorological targets would include objects like rain, snow, and hail. However these are not the only objects that will reflect the radar signal. Among others, the radar can also see returns from non-meteorological objects such as birds, bugs, dust, terrain, buildings, and other sources of radio waves at similar frequencies.
Forecast reliability can be improved by interrogating the degree to which the solution changes as newer runs are generated. Additionally, by cross-checking model solutions with other models covering the same domain and valid time, forecast uncertainty can be inferred.

When a watch is issued begin making preparations for the upcoming event. Listen to your local media to know when warnings are issued. Watches are intended to heighten public awareness of the situation. A warning means that a certain weather event is IMMINENT.
