Saving a ton of maps can really eat up storage space. This week we look at a simple way to dramatically cut down on that!
MetPy Mondays #273 - How to Magically Save Storage Space for Maps

Saving a ton of maps can really eat up storage space. This week we look at a simple way to dramatically cut down on that!
MetPy Mondays #272 - GOES Gamma Correction and True Green Images
21 February 2023
The GOES plot we made last week looked a little green, so this week we synthesize a true green channel and learn how to apply a gamma correction to images for better visual representation!
MetPy Mondays #271 - Getting Multispectral GOES ABI Imagery
13 February 2023
The GOES satellites provide incredible time and spatial resolution data from their geostationary homes. This week we'll get some of that data and build a multispectral plot.
MetPy Mondays #270 - Predicting the Path of the Chinese Balloon
06 February 2023
This week we use upper air observations to try to predict the path of the Chinese balloon which recently passed over the US. By using coordinate aware math and some observations from the local news we see how accurate our predictions can be with a few lines of Python!
