A satellite image loop shows the bomb cyclone approaching British Columbia and Washington state on November 19, 2024. (NOAA/CIRA) Winds gusted as high as 85 mph in Oregon and 101 mph were reported ...
Satellite loop of Pabuk moving towards Japan, taken on December 23, 2024. Later that same day, the JTWC assigned the system the designation 28W , noting a strong northeast surge was occurring with winds shifting from north-northeasterly to northerly, while Invest 98W , which had formed near the storm, rapidly weakened and was absorbed into the ...
The bomb cyclone had a minimum central pressure of 942 millibars (27.8 inHg) at its peak, making it the most powerful cyclone recorded in the Northeast Pacific. [2] The system had severe impacts across Western North America, before dissipating on October 26. The storm shattered multiple pressure records across parts of the Pacific Northwest.
The launch of GOES-N, which was renamed GOES-13 after attaining orbit. The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES), operated by the United States' National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)'s National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service division, supports weather forecasting, severe storm tracking, and meteorology research.
This satellite image, taken by the Sea-viewing Wide-field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS), shows dust being carried across Nicaragua and Costa Rica by the Papagayo Winds. [ 1 ] The Papagayo Jet , also referred to as the Papagayo Wind or the Papagayo Wind Jet , is strong intermittent winds that blow approximately 70 km north of the Gulf of Papagayo ...
The satellite was launched on 1 March 2018 [3] and reached geostationary orbit on 12 March 2018. [8] In May 2018, during the satellite's testing phase after launch, a problem was discovered with its primary instrument, the Advanced Baseline Imager (see Malfunctions, below). [9] [10] GOES-17 became operational as GOES-West on 12 February 2019. [2]
Incredible satellite footage captures the Pacific Palisades wildfires rage across Los Angeles. Bright orange flames and thick smoke can be seen from the skies, in the footage shared by CIRA on ...
An example of positive PNA (left) and negative PNA (right), based on anomalies in the geopotential height of the 500 hPa pressure level. The Pacific–North American teleconnection pattern (PNA) is a large-scale weather pattern with two modes, denoted positive and negative, and which relates the atmospheric circulation pattern over the North Pacific Ocean with the one over the North American ...
