View the latest Infrared (IR) and Visible satellite imagery from JMA's Himawari satellite along with a national radar mosaic and weather observations from The Australian Bureau of Meteorology.

Touch any open area on the map to start/stop the animation, click on markers to access specific radar and observation details

There are four sets of controls at the bottom :

  • The first row controls the backround imagery on the map, a static Terrain view, or live, animated satellite views
  • The second row allows you to overlay obserations from this time period :
    • Temp - The latest temperature in degrees Celcius
    • Rain - The amount of rainfall from the period you have selected (between 1 hr and 1 week)
    • Rain 9am - The rain since 9am local time
    • Wind - The latest wind direction and strength as indicated by standard wind barbs
    • River - The latest river height available. Some river measurements are delayed, so more will be visible at longer time periods
  • On the third row you can select the time period you wish to animate through. Changing this to longer time periods can increase the animation interval due to memory constraints
  • Lastly there is the interval the animation runs at. The radar imagery is available at 5 minute intervals while the live satellite imagery is 10 minutes at most
