1-minute Mesoscale Domain Sector GOES-16 (GOES-East) “Clean” Infrared Window (10.35 µm) images (above) include time-matched SPC Storm Reports — and showed the widespread severe weather produced by thunderstorms (many of which were associated with a squall line that developed ahead of a cold front) moving eastward across the Mid-South and Deep South on 30 March 2022.

The corresponding 1-minute GOES-16 “Red” Visible (0.64µm) images (below) showed these storms during the period leading up to sunset on 30 March.
