NASA AIRS Instrument's View of Grace's Clouds

Caption

NASA's Aqua satellite AIRS instrument captured an infrared image of Tropical Storm Grace's clouds on Oct. 4 at 10:17 a.m. EDT. At the time of this image, Grace had not yet come together as her clouds (purple as cold as -63F) had not yet organized into the signature tropical storm shaped-swirl.
