Just wondering if someone can explain to me the difference between a Satellite Visible and a Satellit Infrared shot. I'm assuming one shows cloud cover (vis) and the other incorporates temperature into it (infrared)??

Clouds appear on visible pictures as white or grey spots. The whiter the clouds appear, the denser and more likely rain producers they are. Lower and smaller clouds are also easier to see on visible pictures.
On infrared pictures, the whiter clouds are the colder (and higher) ones.
