The energy sector is preparing to gather at Messe Essen for E-world energy & water, the industry's leading trade fair for energy trading, sustainability, and digitalisation. This year, the event takes place from 10 to 12 February 2026.
Why do some winter cold spells last for weeks instead of days? Learn how large-scale atmospheric patterns trap cold air, suppress weather changes, and contribute to long-lasting winter conditions.

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 Altea. 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.
