The next storm?
Is that a real image?
It's a real screenshot from 2004's banger The Day After Tomorrow.
Hate how people are downvoting this guy just for asking a question, like what is this, reddit?
I wouldn't worry about it. There's a very sad person who tries to downvote all of my posts on a regular basis.
I call that the validation downvote. Just means the federation is still working.
I think they're downvoting the Squid, not the content of the post. I imagine a poster like Flying Squid has made some enemies along the way, the kind of people who literally go and downvote all their posts.
I'll take what I said on Reddit and bring it here: Don't comment on downvotes, they don't matter.
Why would a satellite actually imaging storms want to place a satellite in the image as well?
I think its from some movie, like "the Day after Tomorrow" or something.
Because in movies you can have a shot of a satellite while showing a shot of the storm. I think that's fairly harder to do in real life, seeing you'd have to have two satellites perfectly in sync (and they go pretty fast) or a satellite (space stations are satellites as well) with a very long selfie stick.
Edit actually yah googled "the day after tomorrow storm" and this was one of the first images to pop up, the exact same image https://www.syfy.com/sites/syfy/files/styles/scale_862/public/2022/12/storm.jpg
I've seen ISS photos that have bits of the ISS in the shot. 🤷♂️
But also, I did some searching and no, that is not Hurricane Milton.
Oh yeah there's shots like that. But like, in general. I don't know just made me think of the day after tomorrow and yes it's was that.

So must've been in my subconscious or smth
Geostorm. Fun enough throwaway Gerard Butler movie.
Absolutely hilarious in the most unintentional way.
I feel like those words could be used to describe most of his movies (though obviously some are better than others, I'd even go so far as call a couple of them pretty good)
