The Community Satellite Processing Package (CSPP) software Polar2Grid supports the creation of imagery using Microwave Integrated Retrieval Software (MIRS) algorithms. This is useful because on-line sources of imagery occasionally go missing. Consider, for example, the Snowfall Rate values that are

Scientists and programmers at SSEC/CIMSS have been working with Hydra within McIDAS-V to augment its functionality, enabling it to view data from the Cross-Track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) on JPSS Satellites (Suomi-NPP, NOAA-20 and NOAA-21). How is this functionality accessed? After

The 1200 UTC sounding from Hilo HI (91285) was unavailable on 29 October 2024. (Here is the sounding from 0000 UTC). When such a failure happens, there is a backup: NUCAPS profiles show thermodynamic information that is retrieved from infrared
