NASA cloud-top temperature scale: 150–220 K violet; 220–225 K pink; 225–240 K dark to bright blue; 240–245 K cyan; 245–260 K dark to bright green; 260–265 K yellow; 265–270 K gold; 270–280 K brown; 280–290 K dark red; 290–350 K bright red. Lower temperatures indicate colder cloud tops. Use the coordinate form or select a location for its exact published colour bin. This reads a displayed satellite pixel, not the underlying measurement; mixed or unknown colours remain unavailable. Clear sky and missing observations are transparent. NASA colour definitions.
Global patterns, not an address-level forecast. Blank areas mean missing data. Check official local warnings for immediate decisions.

This globe uses MapLibre GL JS and OpenFreeMap maps from OpenStreetMap. Zoom in for cities, roads and neighborhoods. Map detail increases with zoom; weather retains its original global resolution. Atmospheric trails show surface wind; ocean trails show geostrophic currents. Rotation is a browsing effect, not a forecast animation. Quake pulses mark reported epicentres, not seismic-wave travel. Fire markers use NASA FIRMS Suomi-NPP VIIRS satellite heat detections, with clustering at global zoom and an observation replay. Flame icons are illustrative markers, not live footage or a simulation of fire spread.
