GOES-16 Visible (0.64 µm) images [click to play MP4 animation]

A strong pre-cold-frontal squall line produced widespread severe weather (primarily damaging winds: SPC storm reports) across the eastern US on 01 March 2017. A GOES-16 Mesoscale Sector provided imagery at 30-second intervals during a portion of the day — and ABI 0.5-km resolution Visible (0.64 µm) images (above; also available as a 79 Mbyte animated GIF) showed the well-defined squall line cloud band as it moved across Virginia.  A larger-scale view is available here.
