On May 8, 2021, NOAA satellites observed a von Karman vortex street over Guadalupe Island. These cloud formations often occur over the ocean when islands disrupt the flow of the wind. This disruption creates spiral patterns in the clouds. The intensity of the wind affects the pattern of swirls that are formed. NOAA satellites and those from international partners observe the phenomena all over the world. When von Karman vortices form, satellites capture them in stunning detail. Video credit: @NO

This #FullDiskFriday, we're providing a different view of the Northern Hemisphere to show the movement of the polar vortex from Jan. 18-22, 2025. This animation was created based on temperature data from the Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS) instrument onboard NOAA's Joint Polar Satellite System satellites.

Von Karman vortices are swirls above the ocean, like those in the wake of a ship. These were yesterday off the Canary Islands. Here's how they form https://youtu.be/U-cO64l1jMA Satellite image from Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere | Alan Sealls Weather

Some von Kármán vortex clouds are currently occurring in the East China Sea, just south of the Jeju Island in South Korea. These clouds form when a big, elevated barrier, like an island, mountain, or volcano, diverts a steady wind, upsetting the atmosphere's normal flow. The airflow's instability causes alternating vortices to form downstream as the air passes around the barrier, creating a recurring pattern of swirling clouds with alternating rotational directions. 📷: Windy | Westernpacificwea
