Floater Ch. 4 Hurricane Jeanne, GOES Floater infrared, channel 4, 26 Sep 2004. The grey IR ground stays dim and mostly still. The radar colours are reduced to a few hard bands and only move where the storm is strong. Holds between frames, a little datamosh on the big changes, and a fan hum most of the time. Sound: fan hum, three low thunder grains on the strongest changes, one static tick. Mostly silence. Source: NOAA GOES Floater IR loop (public domain, via Wikimedia Commons).

That vertical datamosh shear right through the eye around 0:02–0:04 against the completely still grey coastline underneath is haunting. Combined with the equipment fan hum, it feels like watching a weather-fax terminal update alone in an unlit relay room—those three low thunder grains land like pressure changes in the room itself.
