year in June/July as light levels increase due to the longer days. This image comes from the NOAA/NASA Suomi-NPP satellite which is a polar orbiting satellite which collects data while circling the Earth passing over the north and south poles. One of the images we can create from this data is a true

Thicker clouds appear whiter than thinner clouds. The scale on the legend indicates albedo (or reflectivity) on a scale from 0 to 1. Visible satellite
