Live Weather Map

Methodology

This application demonstrates concepts from modern meteorology. The forecast is derived from NOAA's Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. The map visualizes real-time data from GOES satellites and official National Weather Service (NWS) GIS hazard layers.

This application integrates multiple data sources to provide a comprehensive weather overview, reflecting modern forecasting techniques.

  • NWP Forecast: Data sourced from NOAA's public APIs, powered by physics-based models.
  • Live Satellite Imagery: Real-time infrared data from the GOES-East satellite, able to see cloud tops day and night.
  • GIS Hazard Layers: Official watches and warnings from the NWS are overlaid on the map to show areas at risk.
  • Live Location Alerts: Utilizes browser Geolocation and Notification APIs to provide real-time severe weather warnings for your current location.
