GOES-15 0.63 \u00c2\u00b5m visible images<\/p><\/div>\n

As a part of the GOES-15 Post Launch Science Test<\/a><\/strong>, the satellite was placed into Rapid Scan Operations (RSO) mode, providing images periodically at 5-minute intervals. GOES-15 0.63 \u00c2\u00b5m visible images (above; also available as a QuickTime movie<\/a>)<\/em><\/strong> and 10.7 \u00c2\u00b5m IR images (below; also available as a QuickTime movie<\/a>)<\/em><\/strong> showed two distinct convective bursts that were developing within the CDO region (the 15 UTC and 18 UTC positions of the center of Earl are marked on the images)<\/em>. The coldest cloud top IR brightness temperatures were -86\u00c2\u00ba C<\/strong> (darker violet color enhancement)<\/em> at 16:15 UTC and again at 19:25 UTC.<\/p>\n

The far eastern portion of the island of Guadeloupe can be seen mapped in dark blue along the lower left edge of the GOES-15 images.<\/p>\n
