When will Severe and Hazardous Weather Strike?
Severe and hazardous weather can include conditions produced by thunderstorms, including damaging winds, tornadoes, large hail, flooding and flash flooding, and winter storms associated with freezing rain, sleet, snow and strong winds.
NOAA satellites don't just help us monitor severe and hazardous weather, but also help us analyze weather patterns to predict when and where it will strike.
