RT @UNDP: In West Africa, solar energy can help countries pursue low-carbon development and bring energy access to those who still need it.

What can be done to release the potential of solar energy in the region?

#Hurricane #Jova strengthened from a 60 kt tropical storm to a 140 kt Category 5 in 30 hours from Tue evening to late Wed night. During that time, the peak seas near the center increased from 17 ft to 47 ft, as analyzed by TAFB. Here's a 24-hr sat loop of the rapid strengthening
For posterity... a day of satellite images to cover Jova's remarkable evolution. - Brian McNoldy

TROPICAL UPDATE: @NOAA's #GOESEast🛰️ continues to closely monitor rapidly intensifying #Hurricane #Lee in the Atlantic Ocean. @NHC_Atlantic predicts that Lee will eventually become an extremely strong Category 5 hurricane, with sustained winds of 157 mph or higher.

Category 5 Hurricane #Jova is the most powerful storm on the planet today. This #GOESWest view tracks the pinhole eye and concentric swirl via Infrared and Water Vapor imagery. Pro tip: WV is IR, just at wavelengths that best measure temperatures of water vapor in the atmosphere. - UW-Madison CIMSS
