South america, and the longest distance for a single flash covering over 750 kilometres in the southern usa. these flashes were observed by new satellite technology, geostationary lightning mappers. daile zhang, who helped to verify these records says the mappers reveal more about the scale of lightning than traditional ground—based detectors. there are optical sensors so you can think of it as, you know, a camera on your cell phone, but it detects, it covers a large domain, north and south am...

Memorable incidents while you have been on shift here? we had an interesting morning, it was fairly quiet, a bit foggy, and one of our local fishing vessels lost its motor and heard on the radio, listening on channel 16, that it needed a tow, and very gratefully the boat next to it actually managed to tow it back so that was good, it wasnt an incident that was turning nasty, that was very easy to do. and about an hour later, a plane flew really, really low over the watchtower, a member of the pu...

Frequency, so whenever there is lightning in the cloud, the satellite sensor will see where it started and how it propagates and the cloud and where it ends. it is exciting, though, we have the technology to observe and appreciate the beauty of it. my initial thought was that studying satellite lightning was the best thing that i have ever done. riliilur lightning was the best thing that i have ever done.— lightning was the best thing that i have ever done. our time is almost u . have ever don...

Punched into the cloud, so we will have some sunny spells, probably the best across england and wales where we will see the highest of temperatures again, with light winds, 20 or 21 degrees but it will be mild as well further north, to scotland, highs of 15 or 16 degrees. good friday, it looks like the weather front could edge a little bit further eastward so i think apart from the odd showerfor eastward so i think apart from the odd shower for the far west of the uk, most places should stay dry...

The north and west if it happens, and there will be coastal mist and mist and fog, and low cloud lingering across parts of the west coast and english channel. so if youre heading there, that will depress the temperature and probably depress the temperature and probably depress you if you are planning a weekend. but do keep in touch because that could change. this morning rain is pushing northwards across scotland and england and wales. this band will have some heavy bursts in it and possibly the...
