Description
English: Yellow, orange, and red areas indicate the coldest, highest cloud tops in this image taken around noon on March 2, 2012 by the NOAA AVHRR sensor flown on the Metop-A satellite. Pairing precise color scales with this high resolution imagery allows meteorologists to weed out the extraneous cloud information and focus on the most threatening features in this massive storm system. Major connective storm outbreaks can be seen dotting the Midwest in this image. As of 4pm EST, the NOAA Storm Prediction Center has received 32 reports of tornadoes, many throughout Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee.
