THIS IS NOT A GLITCH. THIS IS ELECTRICITY ABOVE... THE CLOUDS. High above the most violent thunderstorms on Earth, something almost impossible flickers into existence... jellyfish-shaped bursts of red light dancing at the edge of space. They're called Red Sprites. These ghostly flashes erupt 30-50 miles above active storms, triggered by the massive electrical discharge of a lightning massive electrical discharge of a lightning bolt below. While the bolt strikes downward toward the ground, sprites fire silently upward toward space. The insane part? SO They vanish in under 10 milliseconds fast the human eye can barely register them which is why most people have never seen one despite storms happening every second somewhere on Earth. Storm chasers chased them for years without proof. Scientists finally confirmed they were real in 1989. 4 When you see one, you're watching electricity escape Earth's atmosphere entirely. Have you ever caught a glimpse of a Red Sprite? Upper atmosphere, 30-50 miles above thunderstorms. ▲ Visual may be enhanced to illustrate the phenomenonshow more

LEVEL 2 SEVERE WEATHER ALERT DAY TODAY ⚠️⛈️ As... expected, the SPC has placed most of the PIX11 News viewing area under a LEVEL 2 severe weather risk for damaging winds, dangerous cloud-to-ground lightning, torrential rainfall, and hail. The primary severe threat appears to be strong to damaging wind gusts and small hail, while the tornado threat remains low. A few storms could develop earlier this afternoon across the Lower Hudson Valley, NW New Jersey, Lehigh Valley, and the Poconos before a more organized line moves through late this evening. On PIX11 News at 9am with the latest timing and impacts.show more

🇺🇸🇪🇺 SPACEX LAUNCHES EUROPE'S NEW WEATHER WATCHDOG Falcon 9... has successfully launched from Florida with the MTG-S1 satellite, part of EUMETSAT’s upgraded weather-tracking fleet. The satellite is now on its way to geostationary orbit to help Europe and Africa forecast storms, track lightning, and scan the skies in 3D every hour. Basically, it's a flying weather nerd that just got dropped off by Elon’s favorite rocket Uber. This marks the first "sounding" satellite of the MTG program, and it's already making meteorologists sweat with excitement. Source: SpaceXshow more

From International Space Station, we have a unique vantage... point to observe lightning storms from directly above them. Much like from the ground, they appear as rapid, intense flashes that are over as quickly as they started. But, with the help of handheld cameras and a bit of practice (and, admittedly, some luck), we can capture these intense flashes with a very high frame rate then slow them down to see how the lightning propagates. It's lightning, in slow motion. This is one that occurred over Indonesia on 6/28. I shot it for a half second at 1/120 frame rate, so, 60 separate frames. I then compiled those frames into two videos: the first, in real-time, and the second, slowed down so that each frame is a half second to highlight the progression of the flash. Note the incredible burst of light in one frame, which includes what is likely a TLE on the upper left. A TLE, or Transient Luminous Event, is an electrical discharge that happens in the upper atmosphere above lightning storms (if you haven’t seen Nichole “Vapor” Ayers TLE photo from last week, head over to her page). As their name implies, these are transient, or short lived, phenomena – it appeared in only one frame of the sequence, lasting for no more than 1/120th of a second. The last photo is that single frame. Absolutely incredible.show more

🇺🇦🇷🇺As Ukraine's asymmetric strike capabilities continue to force a... radical shift in maritime defense, naval assets anchored deep within rear infrastructure are adopting improvised structural modifications to mitigate the persistent threat of aerial and surface drone strikes. 🇷🇺 The Russians have begun installing anti-drone nets (cages) on the Black Sea Fleet submarines stationed in Novorossiysk 🛰️ Satellite imagery reveals that metal structures are being mounted on 3 Varshavyanka-class submarines. Another one is reportedly being prepared for similar "armoring." ▪️ The reason cited is the growing threat from Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles. They are attempting to provide additional protection for the submarines against expected attacks from the air and sea, even while they are docked in port. Video is generated by Grok AIshow more

Details shared by Vinay from Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh -... Yesterday morning I was travelling from Kurnool (Andhra Pradesh) to Gulbarga (Karnataka). I had pulled my Nexon over to the side of the road for a tea break and was moving slowly along the shoulder when a lorry came from behind and hit me. When I confronted the lorry driver, he claimed he hadn’t even touched, But my dash-cam had captured everything. After we reviewed the footage, he apologised. Even so, I refused to let him leave until the police arrived, because in his drunken state he could have caused another accident. He had been driving all night without rest while intoxicated. The police arrived and took both the lorry and the driver into custody. The incident occurred on the Hatti–Gudur Bhaba stretch of the Raichur-to-Gulbarga road.show more

Tuesday, April 14, 2026 at 6:52 AM: What you... have witnessed yesterday and this past weekend across California and parts of Southern California is the birth pains of an El Niño development and the ongoing escalation the warming of the Pacific torrential rains came through the San Fernando Valley with such strong, thunderstorms that it caused significant flooding in the Sherman Oaks, Universal City area around 1:05 PM - 1:35 PM yesterday on April 13, 2026. This powerful storm packed winds gusts of over 50 mph and it’s a true testament that we are no longer in a pattern that brings rain in just winter time but is now extending into April and May and beyond with that said we have another storm on the heels that will be arriving very quickly on April 21 - 27, 2026. The next storm will also bring more heavy rain, thunder, and lightning, and yes, more snowfall to the local mountains. As the Pacific continues to warm, the weather will become more drastic with extreme heat waves and more unusual severe rain events for California. This situation will get quite scary if it continues to verify by the end of October and November with the super El Niño development and the atmosphere connecting something that we’ve not seen since 1982, 1997/ 1998. The main Marshall Islands low axis is already gearing up for this major event this year which you’ve seen an example already. The flooding in the Hawaiian islands. Typhoon Sinlaku has now hit the Guam region with a category five status this early in April all due to the warming of the Pacific and the emergence of El Niño. #CAwxshow more

Today, we visited the Minab school in southern Iran,... where US forces massacred 168 students and teachers at the outset of the Trump-Netanyahu war of aggression on Iran. About ten minutes after we left the Minab school today, it was hit with a drone strike. (The aftermath of that strike was captured in this video). Yesterday, we were in the Iranian city of Bushehr, which lies on the Persian Gulf to the north of Minab. Shortly after we left our hotel in Bushehr, there was an airstrike on a target directly across the street from our hotel. While we were in Bushehr, we visited a marine terminal that had sustained damage in airstrikes conducted earlier this month. Shortly after we left the marine terminal, it too was hit with an airstrike. Another site that we visited in Bushehr yesterday was also hit with an airstrike shortly after we left it. Now all of this could be random. On the other hand, it may be that U.S.-Israeli forces are sending us a message. If in fact they are sending us a message, we have a message for them. Our message is that no amount of intimidation will stop us from exposing their monstrous crimes. #Iran #Iranwarshow more

On March 6, 2015, astronomers reported observing a supernova... in a distant spiral galaxy. Although the explosion itself occurred millions of years earlier, the light carrying that event had only just reached Earth after traveling across intergalactic space. This delay is not unusual but a fundamental feature of the universe, where distance and the finite speed of light turn every observation into a glimpse of the past. In this way, telescopes function not just as instruments of sight, but as time machines, revealing events long after they have concluded. Each distant supernova reminds us that the cosmos we observe is a layered history, unfolding to us not as it is now, but as it once was across unimaginable spans of space and time.

Unusual Activity at the Tunnel Linked to the ENTC... Facility in Esfahan - prior to US Strikes An unusual development has occurred at the tunnel connected to the ENTC facility in Esfahan. As no analysts or official IDF statements have addressed this so far, I decided to take a closer look. In the satellite images below, three main entrances to the underground complex can be identified. This facility is part of Iran’s uranium conversion program, where yellowcake is transformed into UF6 gas for subsequent enrichment at Natanz or Fordow. It is likely that this complex also serves as a storage site and possibly a redundancy facility for the surface-level operations. Based on low-resolution satellite imagery taken between June 17 and 22, the following observations can be made: Entrance 1 – Earthworks were detected along the northern approach to the entrance on June 20, followed shortly by similar activity on the southern side. It appears that the entrance itself was covered in the process. Entrance 2 – Earthworks began near a small adjacent opening and quickly extended to cover the entire access route, with the asphalt becoming fully concealed. It seems this entrance was also covered. Entrance 3 – The activity here is less clear. Earthmoving was observed along the access route, and in the latest image, the path appears significantly darker. It is uncertain whether the entrance was covered, but this remains a possibility. There is no indication that this tunnel was struck in the salvo of Tomahawk missiles launched by the U.S. Navy, although some media outlets reported that the site had indeed been hit. In summary, this tunnel — while not an enrichment facility — is connected to Iran’s nuclear program and appears to have survived the Israeli-American operation. The status of the equipment located beneath dozens of meters of bedrock remains unknown. I am awaiting higher-resolution imagery to confirm this analysis and will provide updates as new information becomes available.show more

Major Storm to Impact Southern California As of Wednesday,... February 12, 2025, at 6:50 PM PDT, the latest infrared satellite imagery confirms that the incoming storm system is fully developed and on track to deliver severe weather across Northern and Central California tonight into early Thursday afternoon. The system is intensifying rapidly, with a powerful surface cold front expected to sweep through San Luis Obispo to San Diego counties, bringing damaging winds, torrential rainfall, and the potential for severe thunderstorms. Key Storm Impacts: "Big Thursday" – A Major Weather Event • Extreme Rainfall Rates – 0.50 to 1.5 inches per hour, increasing the risk of urban flooding, flash floods, and mudslides, particularly in burn scar areas of Los Angeles County. • Damaging Winds – Southerly gusts of 45-65 mph, capable of toppling trees, damaging weak structures, and causing widespread power outages. • Severe Thunderstorm & Weak Tornado Potential – The latest HRRR model data (18Z, 0Z) indicates the presence of a squall line, increasing the risk of isolated severe thunderstorms and weak tornadoes between 12 PM and 10 PM Thursday. • Scattered to Widespread power Outages – Areas at risk include the San Fernando Valley, Santa Clarita Valley, Ventura County, and portions of Los Angeles County, where infrastructure could be severely impacted. • Urban Flooding Concerns – Locations such as Downtown Los Angeles, Pasadena, Altadena, and Pacific Palisades will experience rapid runoff and potential roadway flooding, creating hazardous travel conditions. The Seriousness of the Situation This storm is shaping up to be one of the most intense weather events of the season, posing a significant threat to life and property. Residents in Los Angeles County and surrounding areas must prepare for prolonged heavy rainfall, high winds, possible power outages, and dangerous road conditions. Authorities urge residents to stay indoors, avoid unnecessary travel, and prepare emergency supplies. Those in flood-prone and burn scar areas should be especially vigilant for potential debris flows and flash flooding. This is a rapidly evolving situation and further updates in the next 24 to 30 hours. #CAwx #CaliforniaStormsshow more

🚨BREAKING: Did We Just Film the FATAL BULLET That... Took Out Charlie Kirk? Insane SINGLE-FRAME STREAK Whizzes Past Fiji Bottle MILLISECONDS Before Charlie Kirk SHOT! 🔫🎯 Check out this INSANE FRAME-BY-FRAME discovery we just found when going back though the Charlie Kirk assassination footage that's me excited. Look close at the Fiji water bottle directly in front of Charlie on the table: A high-velocity streak of light flashes across ONE SINGLE FRAME—milliseconds before the gunshot crack/boom echoes. This isn't an artifact or glitch. It's a linear blur consistent with a supersonic projectile (bullet) captured mid-flight. Technical breakdown: Standard smartphone cameras (30-120 fps) can't resolve the shape of a rifle round traveling 2,700–3,000+ fps. Instead, the sensor registers only a brief streak from reflected light as the object transits the frame—exactly matching what we see. Timing perfect too: Visual streak precedes audible report because light travels faster than sound (instant vs. ~1,100 fps). If this is the bullet itself whizzing past the bottle en route to Charlie... we just captured the fatal shot on video. Ballistics experts, optics pros—we need you to weigh in ASAP. The lone sniper story? Crumbling by the frame. Drop a 🔍 if this single-frame streak is the smoking gun we've been waiting for. Tag Candace Owens and make sure she sees this. Experts—DM or comment. This changes everything. Share before they scrub the footage. 🔥🇺🇸 Shoutout to ConstantStream For noticing this and bringing it to my attention. great eye! everyone should FOLLOW them.show more

Sunday, February 23, 2025, 3:00 PM PDT: A significant... shift in the pattern from 90° temperatures in the next 2 to 3 days across much of Southern California and the southwest. A shift in the main Pacific Jet stream axis is just approximately 230 miles due west of the Hawaiian islands and Marshall Island corridor. A series of strong Pacific storms that are trending one right after the other this particular series of storms may produce similar to what we had a couple of weeks ago that brought significant rainfall to our region. I’m watching the details as this emerges this upcoming week as we transition into March 2025. This is also known as the pinnacle of Hollywood’s award season, which is on March 2, 2025, which is next Sunday already. Higher confidence is growing in potential for at least over an inch of rainfall. Possibly higher rainfall amounts first week of March 2025. This still is being looked at closely in the next 24 to 36 hours from San Francisco to San Diego, California. The hardest-hit areas trending are San Luis Obispo to Los Angeles counties. Many burn areas from Pacific Palisades to Altadena will have to keep a close eye on this developing weather situation over the next few days as this evolves. #CAwx #CaliforniaStormsshow more

Thursday, January 15, 2026, 1:40PM: Just like clockwork the... latest 0Z EU1 early preliminaries show that the powerful elongated Pacific jet extension will intensify greatly after January 24 and looks to aim directly at California, especially for Southern California by January 25 - February 8, 2026, This seems to be the best time frame for favorability. They’re is also now a re-emergence of the main Marshall Islands robust low axis approximately 345 miles due west seems to be developing in the central Pacific due to ongoing warming of the Pacific Ocean Basin very interesting times we are in currently. I'm monitoring all these ever-changing developments carefully and thoroughly in the next 72 to 96 hours. Currently, we’re experiencing almost record-breaking temperatures in Southern California where it was 85° on January 14, 2026 almost similar weather occurred back on December 10, 2025, where it was 87° in downtown Los Angeles this is the next loading phase of the storms. #CAwxshow more

☀️12th April 2026: India Under the Dome: 6-Day Intense... Dry Spell to Grip Subcontinent. The loan oasis, Northeast India Defies National Trend with Rain and Thunderstorms until 15th April. ​Mercury Surge: Central and South India Brace for 40°C+ as High Pressure Caps the Skies ​ Detailed Forecast & Analysis ​1. The Dominant "Heat Dome" Effect ​The orange and red anomalies in the loop represent positive geopotential height anomalies. This indicates a high-pressure system (anticyclone) at the 500mb level (approx. 5.5 km altitude). ​The Cause: This system acts like a "lid" or dome, trapping sinking air which warms up as it is compressed. This suppresses cloud formation and prevents moisture from the oceans from penetrating inland. ​Impact: Expect a rapid rise in maximum temperatures by 3–6°C across Northwest, Central, and East India. Example, cities like Delhi, Nagpur, and Ahmedabad are likely to approach or exceed the 40°C mark by April 15. ​2. Regional Breakdown Region Weather Outlook (Next 6 Days): Primary Driver Northwest & Central Severe dry heat; clear skies; rising heatwave risks. Strong anticyclonic subsidence. South Peninsular Hot and humid; minimal rainfall. High-pressure stability. East India Significant temperature spike (3–5°C rise). Expansion of the heat ridge eastward. Northeast India Scattered thunderstorms & light-to-moderate rain. Persistent 3. The Northeast Exception until 15th April. ​The red arrow in the loop image points to a specific area (Northeast India/Bangladesh border) where the high-pressure dome is weaker or interrupted. ​The Cause: A "trough" (an elongated area of low pressure) is expected to persist over this region. This allows moisture from the Bay of Bengal to interact with the hilly terrain, triggering Orographically induced thunderstorms. ​Expected Conditions: While the rest of India stays dry, states like Assam, Meghalaya, and Arunachal Pradesh will likely see fairly widespread rainfall and gusty winds 30–40 kmph through April 16. ​Preparation Advice ​Agriculture: Farmers in Central and West India should ensure adequate irrigation for summer crops as soil moisture will deplete rapidly. ​Health: High UV indices 9–10 are expected; avoid outdoor activity between 11 AM and 4 PM in heat-affected zones. ​Northeast Residents: Prepare for sudden squalls and lightning; ensure drainage systems are clear for localized heavy spells.show more
