Where the evidence comes from
Weather satellites run by NOAA, NASA and EUMETSAT watch the continent without pause and archive every image. When you order a report, we go back to that archive — the same one weather services use — and read it over your property.

GOES-19, the eastern satellite
Parked over 75.2° W, it sees from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego. Its ABI imager sweeps the full disk every 10 minutes in 16 bands. Band 13 measures cloud-top temperature: the colder the top, the taller and more violent the storm.

GOES-18, the western one
Over 137.2° W it covers western North America and the Pacific. For a property west of 106° W we read this satellite: it looks at it more squarely, with less distortion.

Meteosat-12, the European one
The first of Meteosat’s third generation, over the Greenwich meridian. Its FCI imager covers Europe every 10 minutes in 16 channels; we read it with the same method, tuned to the height of the local tropopause.

GLM and the Lightning Imager
Cameras that film the planet hundreds of times a second and record every flash, day and night, even inside the cloud. We measure each flash’s distance to your property; a sudden jump in the rate often comes before hail.

Radar, model and low orbit
The satellite sees the cloud; the ground completes the story. In the United States we add MRMS radar, which estimates hail size, and SPC storm reports. Everywhere, wind from the GFS model — a model, never an observation — and Sentinel-2 to see the field before and after.
