The Reason Your Satellite Service (Internet, TV, etc) goes Bad During Poor Weather.


The reason satellite service is sometimes problematic is that the signal is being received from a geostationary satellite in space.
The signal must travel about 44,000 miles round-trip, passing through Earth's atmosphere before it reaches you. During bad weather the signal is sometimes distorted and attenuated by dense cloud systems in the atmosphere, causing bad reception.

In contrast, Fiber optic communication system is not affected by weather.
