[Victorian bushfires, Melbourne weather]
Good news: the cool change has reached this part of Melbourne.
Bad news: for many rural parts of Victoria, the Bureau of Meteorology's rain radar is functionally also a bushfire map due to pyrocumulonimbus clouds.
#VictorianBushfires #Pyrocumulonimbus […]
Shockingly rapid #bushfire spread and #pyrocumulonimbus development over Big Desert Wilderness Park, northwest Victoria, Australia today. Ongoing!
#PyroCumulonimbus #WildcatFire version.
1-minute #GOES18/#GOESWest Infrared images (combined with the Fire Mask derived product) showed that the #DollarLakeFire in northwest Wyoming produced a notable #pyrocumulonimbus cloud (shades of blues to reds) that drifted E across the state and over western South Dakota. #WYwx
Infrared images (combined with the Fire Mask derived product) from @nws.noaa.gov NOAA #GOES18/#GOESWest showed that the #MonroeCanyonFire in southern Utah produced a #pyrocumulonimbus cloud yesterday evening. #UTwx h/t @mnstorm.bsky.social
1-minute @nws.noaa.gov NOAA #GOES18/#GOESWest Infrared & Visible images (combined with the Fire Mask derived product) showed that the #LeeFire in northwest Colorado produced a #pyrocumulonimbus cloud (Infrared shades of blues to reds) just before sunset on 08 August. #COwx h/t @mnstorm.bsky.social
5-minute @nws.noaa.gov NOAA Satellites #GOES18/#GOESWest Infrared & Visible images (+ the Fire Mask derived product) showed that the #BroncoFire in Arizona produced a #pyrocumulonimbus cloud (shades of blues to reds on Infrared imagery). #AZwx

1-minute #GOES18/#GOESWest Infrared (+ the Fire Mask derived product) & Visible images showed that the #DragonBravoFire in Arizona produced 3 #pyrocumulonimbus clouds (-40s C, shades of blue in the Infrared images) late in the day on 27 July. #AZwx h/t @mnstorm.bsky.social
1-minute #GOES18/#GOESWest Infrared (with the Fire Mask derived product) and Visible images showed that the #MonroeCanyonFire in Utah produced 2 #pyrocumulonimbus clouds (shades of blue in the infrared images) late in the day on 25 July: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl... h/t @mnstorm.bsky.social
#NOAA21 #VIIRS GeoColor images (with an overlay of Fire Radiative Power) at 1755 UTC & 1943 UTC on July 10 showed a large wildfire in western Ontario that produced a significant #pyrocumulonimbus cloud - more on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl...
This past Saturday, a wildfire in the Northwest Territories of Canada produced a large #pyrocumulonimbus cloud -- more on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl... H/T @mnstorm.bsky.social
1-minute #GOES18/#GOESWest Infrared & Visible images showed that wildfires produced #pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb) clouds in Alaska on 20 June (the first confirmed pyroCbs in Alaska for the 2025 wildfire season) -- more details on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl... #AKwx
Visible & Infrared images from #GOES19/#GOESEast showed that the #TroutFire in New Mexico produced a #pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb) cloud on 14 June - the first pyroCb in the US for the 2025. More on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl... H/T @neillareau.bsky.social
Today we take a look at the #wildfires in Alberta, Canada and check some dramatic #pyrocumulonimbus activity visible from satellites youtu.be/VvyKE_VglSY
A wildfire in northeastern British Columbia produced a series of ~3 #pyrocumulonimbus clouds late in the day on 28 May, as seen in @NOAASatellites #GOES18/#GOESWest images -- more details on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl... H/T @mnstorm.bsky.social
ICYMI, a large wildfire burning in Nopiming Provincial Park (in far eastern Manitoba) produced numerous #pyrocumulonimbus clouds on 13 May, which then drifted E across Ontario - a detailed analysis of this event is available on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl...
ICYMI, on 08 May a wildfire in Saskatchewan produced the first #pyrocumulonimbus cloud of the 2025 North America wildfire season - more details on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl... HT @mnstorm.bsky.social
2.5-minute #Himawari9 Shortwave Infrared images showed that the deadly wind-driven wildfire complex in South Korea (that produced 3 #pyrocumulonimbus clouds) made a rapid eastward run all the way to the coast. More details on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl...
2.5-minute #Himawari9 Visible / Shortwave Infrared / Infrared Window images showed signatures of 3 #pyrocumulonimbus cloud pulses (from 0832-0842 UTC) initiated by a wildfire in South Korea -- these are the first documented #pyroCb events on the Korean Peninsula.
Visible, Shortwave Infrared & Longwave Infrared Window images from #Himawari9 showed a bushfire (shades of black to red in the middle panel) in #Grampians National Park (in Victoria, #Australia) that produced a #pyrocumulonimbus cloud (shades of blue in the bottom panel) on 4th February.
A #pyrocumulonimbus 🔥⛈️appears to have developed over the Grampians bushfire, with lightning detected in red.
More images and information about this #pyrocumulonimbus event are available on the CIMSS Satellite Blog: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl...
A #NOAA20 (mislabeled as NPP) #VIIRS Day/Night Band image provided a detailed view of the #pyrocumulonimbus cloud shortly after its formation. The observation for Melbourne Airport is plotted in cyan.
Images from #Himawari9 showed signatures of a wildfire in SE Australia's Grampians Nat'l Park (middle panel) that produced a #pyrocumulonimbus cloud (shades of blue in the bottom panel) - which drifted southeast over Melbourne Airport (YMML).
