Solar Conditions / Radio Propagation
The new GOES East satellite (GOES 16) is an amazing machine and a big improvement over its predecessor. It provides more frequency bands and higher resolution, up to 7000x7000. To see more of what it can do, try this link: https://www.weather.gov/crp/satellite. The high resolution animations are a sight to behold.
Latest Tropical Atlantic GEOCOLOR
The GEOCOLOR image shows visible full color during daytime plus composite infrared at night. This image extends from Central America to the west coast of Africa.
Latest Tropical Atlantic 10 um IR (longwave)
This wavelength is good for viewing clouds in infrared. The image extends from Central America to the west coast of Africa, yet provides enough resolution to watch thunderstorms developing over Guatemala. For more control and higher resolution, explore the link given above.
