The Role of Satellites and Radars
Satellites and radars play a crucial role in weather reporting, providing meteorologists with invaluable data to monitor and forecast weather conditions. Satellites enable the collection of a wide range of information about Earth’s atmosphere, including cloud cover, precipitation, and the movement of weather systems. They provide a global perspective by capturing data from remote regions and oceans that would otherwise go unnoticed. This satellite data is fed into weather models, helping improve the accuracy of forecasts.
