Default Today's MODIS image

I've cropped and uploaded the 11.40 Terra image. It clearly shows the snow
lying in NW Scotland as well as here in N and NW Ireland. The streaky
(Aligned NNW to SSE) nature of the lying snow is fairly obvious.

Warning it is slightly over 2 MB so would take quite a long time to load on
dial up. It is 2626x3042 pixels.

Is it my browser or is the image a little out of alignment in places?

Don't know Rob, it's a bit odd, but it shows he snow here very well.

I guess you are referring to the odd distortion effects in the east, say
over Yorkshire. I think this is a feature of the sensors, when looking at
the edge of filed of view, and someone here (I forget who) did explain the
problem a year or so ago in this ng.

But its not clear enough for me to be sure exactly where everything is, cos
I usually start by going from Flamborough Head and working from there. With
the alignment errors, I couldn't work out the usual landmarks. However, it
does indeed show the snow well...
