DrZoos Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Sorry publicity launched today...but yi ha Japan launched a new BOM satellite with 50 times the details in full colour and it looking at Australia as well.. They say its like switching from black and white TV to colour TV in terms of seeing and predicting weather... http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-09-30/new-satellite-technology-means-better-weather-forecasts/6815922 http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/satellite/himawari.shtml 1 1
DrZoos Posted September 30, 2015 Author Posted September 30, 2015 yep i jumped out of my office when i heard it
DrZoos Posted September 30, 2015 Author Posted September 30, 2015 Its pretty bloody good take a look http://satview.bom.gov.au/ zoom in on your area and compare it to your day... note it only goes back about 4:10 so later tonight you wont see much But after 4 hours airborne today that's an amazingly accurate visual description of what I saw... I can really relate to that.. I guess as it gets thicker its going to be harder to interpret, but that probably screaming something at you anyway.
Downunder Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Would like the zoom to go a bit closer..... 1
