For those of you with Broadband connections, I've put an AVI animation
of the Biscay storm development as seen by Meteosat 8 (MSG-1) The
pictures are copyright Eumetsat. The frames are from the 15 minute
repeat cycle and from the IR 10.8um channel.

The rest of the website is not weather related, it just happens to have
enough room for the file!

Be warned the file is 60Mb! But IMHO well worth the view. Let me know
what you think.

I have added a grid and country outlines to make it easier to follow
the progress. It certainly ranks for me as once of the most fascinating
'bombs' to have watched developing.


Superb, James. The upper flow can be clearly identified in the high
cloud movement.

As an aside, how did you force Windows Media Player to play full screen?
I have been trying to do that on a website but without success so far. I
can only get it to play as a very small screen.

Are you talking about the linked video Norman? If so - it doesn't
play full screen it's just quite big (media player sizes according to
the video) at 888x501 pixels. On my system it's still windowed.


Yes, I did mean the linked video. True, it is still windowed but it
fills most of the screen. Are you saying that it's the pixel size of the
video frames that determines the size of the media player window?

Sorry, this has drifted off-topic. Not much weather here today. Only a
gentle E'ly breeze and no rain so far.
