GOES-8 Atlantic Visible Satellite:
Visible satellite loop shows surfaces with high reflectivity
(e.g., clouds and snow). These surfaces reflect incoming solar radiation and appear as bright regions on the
satellite image.

GOES-8 Atlantic Water Vapor Satellite:
Loop of satellite images from GOES-8 showing water vapor content in the middle
and upper troposphere. It does not show water vapor at the surface. High water vapor content regions are
bright; drier regions are darker.
