In this chapter we will investigate cloud structures using the Meteosat IR 10.8 channel with a colour enhancement in the temperature range from -24 to -64°C (see IR Enhanced legend) or click upon the key symbol (above). This helps us to interpret the information in the IR channel and will show more clearly following structures:
At this time step we see stratiform clouds over Germany / North France and rain. Because this structure is not relevant we will not further consider it. The storm Emma was still west of UK/Ireland. It will be investigated more in detail.
