Tropical Storm Lane
Tropical Storm Lane, true-colour satellite image. This cyclonic storm began as Tropical Depression 14-E on 5 September 2000, over the Pacific Ocean around 200 miles off the Mexican coast. It made a westwards clockwise loop and intensified into a hurricane by 10 September, as it headed towards Baja California, Mexico (top right). It brushed the coast with tropical storm winds, as stronger hurricane winds remained off-shore. It weakened to a tropical depression by 13 September, and broke up to bring heavy rain to the western USA from 14- 15 September.

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the immense power and beauty of Tropical Storm Lane, a true force of nature. Taken on 9 September 2000 by NASA's Terra satellite, this true-colour satellite image showcases the swirling spiral of clouds that form the cyclonic storm. Originating as Tropical Depression 14-E over the Pacific Ocean, approximately 200 miles off the Mexican coast, Lane embarked on a westwards clockwise loop before intensifying into a hurricane by 10 September. Its trajectory set it on a collision course with Baja California, Mexico. As it approached landfall, Lane brushed the coast with tropical storm winds while stronger hurricane winds remained offshore. However, its strength gradually diminished and it weakened to a tropical depression by 13 September. Although no longer classified as a severe storm system at this point, its remnants brought heavy rainfall to parts of western USA from 14-15 September. The atmospheric conditions created an impressive spectacle in which wind and water merged in harmony. The imagery captured by MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) aboard NASA's Terra satellite provides valuable insights into meteorology and climate patterns. This photograph serves as a reminder of both the destructive potential and awe-inspiring beauty found within our planet's natural phenomena.
