While the team at ZMD experienced two brief but heavy showers during the morning, the Kanyama community observers reported that they experienced only light rain. This led to a discussion about how

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

of the Earth’s atmosphere and surface. Objects that reflect most light, such as cloud, appear whiter than objects that reflect less light, such as land. 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
