Channel 2 and Channel 4 Imagery
      Fri Aug 16 2002 10:36 AM

Can someone please explain to me what the differences are in the IR imagery with the two different channels. I know why I like the Channel 2 when trying to see if something is really developing but I don't know why that is so. What and how do they differ? Does one pick up upper clouds whereas one picks up lower clouds? Can someone please explain how they differ and when someone should use the various satelitte imagery. I've always wondered but never asked and thought this would be the best place to do so.

Thanks.
