Utilizing 1 min GOES Visible Satellite Imagery

Utilizing the 1 min GOES visible satellite imagery, I was able to detect a very distinct outflow boundary extending from Stark County into Grant County. The 1 min imagery was helpful in predicting the evolution of storms. I could see the cumulus growing along the outflow boundary and see it propagating southeastward. I assumed that the convection would continue to develop and be focused in the area where the outflow boundary was merging with the southern extent of the storm in Morton County.
