NOAA announced recently they are updating their sea surface temperatures dataset. Some interesting improvements are being added to the dataset. I am looking forward to seeing if this new data will be used in commercial applications that take advantage of sea surface temperatures. Sea surface temperatures are beneficial when tracking tropical weather, and it is great to see NOAA making these great improvements to their dataset.

With the upcoming solar eclipse, Earth Networks has released an excellent article about some things people need to know about it, including how to safely and effectively watch the upcoming solar eclipse. It’s a great article with some excellent information about this exciting weather phenomenon coming up.

Who all is going to be watching the upcoming solar eclipse?
