<![CDATA[North Sea satellite images]]>Can anyone explain the satellite images in these snapshots that I took this morning? These are not clouds.

This glitch can be seen on “Visible” rendering too not only on “Blue” as you show (see the 3 dots at right in the mobile app)
Visible is the addition of images in visible spectrum (in day time areas) and in infrared spectrum (in night time areas).
It seems that this artefact is seen when the combined picture is switching from night to day.
But it is just my guess.

Activate the "Airports" layer - all the little coloured circles have reported conditions for the last couple of hours.

METAR is a report made by the aerodrome instrumentation
TAF is a forecast issued for that particular aerodrome

Hope that helps!
