The Big Picture 

 

Some of the following Sat images are from GOES satellites. Here’s a link to a NOAA resource to find various images spanning North and South America. Here’s a primer on the different sat image products from NOAA’s GOES West and East, and at this link, you can find a quick guide to reading NOAA’s GeoColor sat images. GeoColor images allow for imaging both during the day and night.
