Satellite Views on SA Weather Service

Postby John Young » Fri Dec 01, 2006 5:04 pm

A lot of folk don’t know about some of the views provided by the SA Weather Service.

I prefer the 0º view showing weather that’s coming as opposed to the 63º.

The link is;

There are also colour and playback options etc.

For info, December to April is cyclone season over the Indian Ocean and true to form the first one appears on 1 December – see moderate tropical storm Anita [below].

Hi John,

I fly from Microland and find the following very useful:
