Modelling a city's climate is harder than it looks – and this webinar shows exactly why that matters.
Terrain is one of the quiet architects of weather. Even when the larger weather pattern is set by fronts, pressure systems and the jet stream, hills, valleys and mountain ranges can decide where clouds form, where rain falls, where wind accelerates and where cold air lingers long after sunrise.

The whole day clear skies prevail. It is a sunny day. Temperature highs are likely to reach 81 °F. The UV-Index climbs up to 8, don't forget to use sunscreen when spending the day outside. Overnight into Wednesday expect a moderate breeze (12 to 18 mph). Wednesday morning blows a fresh breeze (18 to 25 mph). Wednesday afternoon a strong breeze is blowing (25 to 32 mph). From time to time gusts could reach up to 39 mph. Winds blowing from South. The weather forecast for Norfolk for Wednesday is expected to be very accurate.

By comparing today's temperatures to 40 years of historical data we can see whether today's forecast is unusually warm (red areas) or cold (blue areas). Coloured dots show observed actual temperatures from professional and private weather stations.

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 Norfolk. This animation shows the precipitation radar for the selected time range, as well as a 1h 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.
