GOES-16 Infrared Window (10.3 µm) images, with GLM Event points plotted as white dots [click to play animation]
Real-time GOES-16 Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) data are now available for viewing using RealEarth™. An example from 21 July 2017 is shown above, for an isolated thunderstorm that developed during the afternoon hours along a residual convective outflow boundary that was draped across eastern Iowa (near Iowa City). This storm produced 1.0-inch diameter hail within 12-22 minutes following the end of the animation (SPC storm reports). Both GOES-16 “Clean” Infrared Window (10.3 µm) images and GLM Events points were available at 1-minute intervals.
