A set of physically based,retrieval algorithms,has been developed,to derive from multispectral satellite imagery a variety of cloud properties that can be used,to diagnose icing conditions,when,upper-level clouds,are absent. The algorithms are being,applied in near-real time to the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) data over Florida, the Southern Great Plains, and the midwestern,USA. The products,are available in image and digital formats on the world-wide web. The analysis system,is being,upgraded,to analyze,GOES data over the CONUS. Validation, 24-hour processing, and operational issues are discussed.
