The video clip documents a well-developed von-Kármán vortex street downwind of the island of Madeira (northeastern Atlantic Ocean). The length of this mountainous island is 57 kilometers, reaching at its highest point 1862 meters. Due to favorable atmospheric conditions the length of the cloud vortex street generated by the island stretched as far as 500 km on that day (26 February 2015). For a more in-depth analysis see: Video by Michael Sachweh. Rapid-scan Meteosat images has been used for the clip (Courtesy: Eumetsat/MeteoGroup).
