Check out this impressive mesovortex GOES-16 (GOES-East) spotted over Lake Michigan on New Year's Eve. The developing swirl of low pressure was responsible for a batch of heavy snow that hit parts of southern Michigan and neighboring Indiana to ring in the new year. You can see the clouds building and intensifying as they draw moisture and energy from the relatively warm waters of the lake, amidst bitterly cold air temperatures. Yellow dots on the map indicate airports across the region. This an

LOOK AT THESE! You've probably never heard of "mesovortices," but the eyes of major/intensifying hurricanes, like Category 5 Melissa, actually contain addition, smaller whirls a few miles across. Mesovortices are a few miles across; they form as a way to balance an extreme discontinuity in angular momentum. In the buzzsaw-like eyewall – that ring of winds spiraling around the eye – there's an incredible amount of extreme wind and "angular momentum." But in the eye, there's hardly any – the air i

It looks eerily like a mini-hurricane but is far less severe. Satellite from Saturday, December 27, 2025. | Davis Wells | Facebook

Learn more here iweathernet.com/tropical/mesovortex-eye ⚡ "It's rotating relative to the eye, as to make the motion of the mesovortices "still" compare to the rest of the storm. So we can see how the mesovoritces are rotating/evolving." A mesovortex is a small-scale rotational feature found in a convective storm, such as a quasi-linear convective system, a supercell,
