The World Meteorology Day 2023 subject title is "The future of weather, climate and water across generations". meteoblue has contributed a video about climate change and developed new tools to help quantify and manage these changes.
On 2023-03-20, there is the calendrical beginning of spring in Europe, while the meteorological spring start date was already at the beginning of the month. So we now want to look at this year’s winter in the Northern hemisphere.

The location marker is placed on Riga. This animation shows the precipitation radar for the selected time range, as well as a 2h forecast. Drizzle or light snow fall might be invisible for the radar. Precipitation intensity is colour coded, ranging from turquoise to red.

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. Orange crosses mark places where lightning was detected (over Europe).
