available. Regional sector loops
are also excellent for viewing
cloud animations at 4 km
resolution.
Snow cover,

The snow depth product from
SSM/I measures the depth of
recently accumulated dry snow.
Snowfall amounts in excess of 40
cm are considered erroneous. This
product is updated once per day at
4 am EST.

zoom in,
Surface Type
The global surface type product
from SSM/I describes the
environment-type of the land
regions. See the legend below the
product to identify the
environment-types. Indeterminate
data can be the result of certain
warm regions in the Sahara or
Australia. This product is updated
once per day at 4 am EST. Click

Surface
This global surface temperature
product from SSM/I measures the
temperature at the surface in land
regions. Indeterminate data can be
a result of snow, ice, and water
covered areas, and certain warm
regions of the Sahara and
Australia. This product is updated
every 4 hours. Regional close up

conditions that include current
information and forecasts as well
as real time data and products,
including satellite data.
The ice concentration product

percentage contcentration of ice
over the oceans. Values exceeding
100 percent are considered
erroneous. This product is updated

products from MODIS. Not cloud
cleared but when used with the
global SST product below can
provide valuable insight into
mesoscale SST. Select day from

Global SST
Global SST analyses combining
satellite derived SST with NCEP
global analysis. Previous times
are also available.
Wind speed,
Ocean surface
The wind speed product from
SSM/I is a measurement of the
wind speed over the oceans.
Indeterminate data in the product
below usually results from the
inability to take accurate
measurements from the polar ice
caps and areas of rainfall. This
product is updated every four
hours, and may be clicked on for a
zoom in sector.
