The most-advanced weather satellite ever developed by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has given scientists and the general public an unprecedented birds-eye-view of the major hurricanes hitting the United States in recent weeks.
Launched in November 2016, the #GOES-16 is NOAA’s next-generation weather satellite equipped with Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) instrument that provides four times greater resolution than NOAA’s existing GOES imagers.

Below is the lightning from storms associated with Hurricane Irma over a period of more than 80 hours beginning at noon on September 4, 2017, to 9:30 pm (eastern) on September 9. NOAA noted that hurricanes don’t often exhibit a great deal of lightning, particularly around the eye, due their winds. Irma of course is an exception.
