Thanks a lot @an_beckert for adding 3D fronts and animating the different starting times! @Met_3D really is an amazing visualisation tool!

Descending #stingjet trajectories in the vicinity of frontal fracture as shown by @LeaEisenstein and 3D fronts of #StormEunice / #Zeynep visualized with @Met_3D.
ICON simulations show plenty trajectories descending to the boundary layer for several hours confirming a #stingjet during #StormEunice/#Zeynep. Here is an example for 11 UTC using @Met_3D. However, if and where it reached the surface isn’t certain.

Satellite images of #StormEunice show signs of a #stingjet, an area of intense wind shown by the hook-shaped cloud, when it formed over the Atlantic, South West of Ireland Chief Scientist Stephen Belcher said he's “proud of the Met Office work in giving due warning of the storm”

I submitted my first paper with colleagues from @WavesToWeather & @Met_3D a few weeks ago in @EGU_GMD! Interested in learning upsides of a 3D perspective in the world of PV? It is in public discussion right now: gmd.copernicus.org/preprints…

Example of flow visualization: a @Met_3D animation illustrating atmospheric transport of rust pathogens is shown in a presentation within this @metoffice #COP26SciencePavilion session from 06 Nov 2021 (at 59:09 min): youtu.be/M-TPpEcsBmk?t=3549

Winterstorms can bring hazardous wind gusts caused by features such as the #coldjet & the rare #stingjet. Within @WavesToWeather & the group of @PKnippertz at @KITKarlsruhe we're working on an objective identification of these. #windfluencer @Met_3D vis: doi.org/10.1002/qj.3666

We will showcase tools developed in @WavesToWeather at a hands-on workshop on 4 September 2022 (on Sunday before the Annual Meeting of @EuropeanMetSoc). #DataAssimilation #ProbabilisticForecasts @Met_3D and more! Stay tuned for updates: wavestoweather.de/meetings/h…

When and where will a polar low occur? A new method for interactive 3-D visual data analysis reveals insights that improve distinguishing the times and locations of polar lows. See new #CLICCS paper by Marcel Meyer et al. wcd.copernicus.org/articles/…

@Met_3D vis of @CopernicusECMWF @ECMWF #CAMS FCs for tomorrows @DLR_de Falcon flight during the @esa_aeolus #JATAC #Aeolus validation campaign. Figs show the wind situation along the sat/aircraft tracks and SAL dust transport in connection with a tropical wave SW of #CapeVerde.

Vorhergesagte Windgeschwindigkeit am 17.09.21 um 20 MESZ über den Kapverdischen Inseln: Die DLR Falcon fliegt unter der #Satellitenspur von #Aeolus und misst einen Teilabschnitt. Sie überfliegt dabei die Bodenstation in #Mindelo (markiert durch die dunkelblaue vertikale Linie)...

@Met_3D is currently used in @WavesToWeather collaboration to plan @DLR_de Falcon flights for #AVATART campaign, supporting #JATAC @esa_aeolus validation campaign of #Aeolus satellite. Vis shows @CopernicusECMWF @ECMWF #CAMS forecast for flight along satellite orbit over tropics.

Impressions from the past years...
Marc Rautenhaus @unihh shows how really cool visualisations of @ECMWF ensemble forecasts with Met3D were used for flight planning in #NAWDEX @DLR_en. Especially liked this brilliant spaghetti plot (good example of #sciart @ArnalLouise ?) #ObsCampaignWS

Enjoyed the Met3d visualisation session with Marc Rautenhaus of @TU_Muenchen here at @ECMWF today.

In this new @EGU_WCD publication we use @Met_3D to visually analyze marine cold air outbreaks and polar lows in @ECMWF #ERA5 #reanalysis data.
