This is the 2nd installment of the 2015-2016 El Nino season satellite timelapse series... Over 2600 still images were collected every 20 minutes for 2-months to make this video. This view from the GOES weather satellite and shows the northern hemisphere (United States) in an infra-red wavelength that is sensitive to water vapor in Earth's atmosphere (light areas are moist and dark is more dry) which is good for showing where storms/rain may be more likely as well as being visible in both day and night time. The term "El Nino" refers to an event of warmer than normal pacific ocean surface temperatures along the equator and west coast of the Americas, which can't be seen in these images. However, the El Nino event is believed change and enhance storm patterns in the northeastern pacific, which may turn-up as more active than normal weather in the video.
The soundtrack is "End of the World" from the "Mission Control" CD by Technician (yours truly), MP3 album and single track available on iTunes at: itunes.apple.com/us/album/mission-control/id970180801 full artist discography and CDs available at HTTP://technician.jcmdi.com
