Animated forecast satellite images - the concept / John Thomas, satellite meteorologist.: En57-44/84-007E-PDF

"The development of animated sequences of GOES-West imagery has allowed meteorologists to monitor cloud motions in a real-time frame. Using the observed motions and tendencies of cloud systems, the meteorologist can forecast these motions for a few hours into the future with a good deal of accuracy. To assist with short-range forecasting, it would be highly desirable to generate images that extend into the future and add them to the sequence."
