Weather situation on 10 Nov 2014
The Polarstern was sailing in the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone. On that day the weather was fair, but shower activity increased during the afternoon.
The small, strong yellow area south of the Polarstern's position (orange dot and white arrow) marks strong thunderstorms in the Severe Storms RGB. This is the biggest advantage of this RGB.
