About this image

I managed some nice infrared and colour data in a short fifteen minute session on 18th January. On looking at the images there is an interesting pattern of small storms curving in a bow towards the GRS that start in the SEB and end up with a white oval further down. Probably just a coincidental line-up but they almost look like a range of eddies caused by the GRS.
