Hurricane Jeanne
has turned back towards the US
Jeanne made a rare extra turn and, after initially heading out towards the
middle of the Atlantic, she turned back around and re-emerged as a full
hurricane.
NOTE: This image was produced as a "false color RGB" image to bring
out the structure of the cloud formations.
In these images, the highest and
coldest clouds are the whitest, while lower and warmer clouds are yellow.
The
land is unnaturally green--this is an artifact showing the relative warmth of
land.
Image by NOAA-17, flyover beginning 11:25am EDT.
