This is something I have never seen before on satellite.
Clouds perfectly outlining roads.
Just incredibly neat imagery of Houston, Texas this morning.
Massive shoutout to Ethan Mok who discovered it (on Twitter).
Had a TON of fun with this one!
Gulf stream eddy-generated clouds and actinoforms were my favorites to highlight.
And weird. They're so weird. I love 'em though.
Impressive satellite view of destructive storms marching across the Midwest this afternoon.
Actinoform clouds are just the coolest freaking things.
For those wondering why... My immediate thought was that it's just land surface/heat related.
Roads are warmer -> warmer air above it is quicker to rise, condense and form cumulus.
