MetPy Mondays #31 - Radar Animations

This week, find out how to make animations in a Jupyter notebook!

Comments:

Hi John -
I like this example. It looks like under Windows 10 imagemagick is not available (tried conda). So no animated gif. However, I am quite versed in creating avi/mp4 movies from a sequence of (satellite RGB)images. Now, I wonder how to write out the individual radar images here, preferably in png format.
cheers, HP

Hi HP. You can save a mp4 out directly as well. Checkout the matplotlib animation docs:

https://matplotlib.org/api/animation_api.html

If you really want to save out individual images, no animation module necessary, just plot everything in a for loop.
