Where did we get the pictures of weather systems we see on television weather reports?

They are created by weather forecasters using a lot of data sources. There are weather stations that collect data and satellites that do so too. All of this data is put together and then they can work out where the weather systems are and the areas of pressure, what level the pressure is and so on. When they have this data they can create the maps and pictures by hand or computer.
