Few weather phenomena evolve as rapidly as a thunderstorm. A calm summer afternoon can quickly turn into heavy rain, lightning, hail, and strong winds within less than an hour. What begins as an ordinary cumulus cloud may grow into a towering storm reaching more than 10 kilometres in height. Despite their short lifespan, thunderstorms are among the atmosphere's most dynamic weather systems.

The real-time satellite image combines visible light during daytime with infrared radiation during nighttime. At night, the image is not dark as infrared radiation can detect temperature differences. Unfortunately, low clouds and fog are difficult to distinguish from ground temperatures and thus can be almost invisible during the night. Meteosat satellite images for Europe are updated in real-time every 5 minutes. GOES-16/GOES-17 (North & South America) and Himawari (Asia) images update every 10 minutes.
Precipitation is estimated from radar and satellites. Precipitation estimates from satellites are less accurate at night than during daytime.

The location marker is placed on 39.01°N 100.83°E. This animation shows the precipitation radar for the selected time range, as well as a 2h forecast. Orange crosses indicate lightning. Data provided by nowcast.de (available in USA, Europe, Australia). Drizzle or light snow fall might be invisible for the radar. Precipitation intensity is colour coded, ranging from turquoise to red.
