Also, a satellite image exists that I desperately need. It is from 13th May
2003 and taken at 1704BST. It was taken by NOAA-12 AVHRR and I know it
exists as it is referenced in an article concerning the events I am trying
to analyse in Weather Vol. 58
Jeremy,
But does it exist? Not according to the Dundee list of AVHRR passes for the
day; I suppose that is the problem you are reporting.
Now, I would hate to suggest that anything you read in Weather is not of the
highest level of accuracy

) but it could simply be an incorrect reference.
Unfortunately, my copies of Weather are at work; perhaps you could let us know
the reference to the paper and I will check the ref.
