Where’s the blur right now?
The imagery above and in the middle is based on real-time satellite images and detects fog, low clouds and snow during day-time. Ice clouds and snow appear orange and red, respectively, while fog and low clouds appear whitish. The E-View RGB composite under is based upon data from the Meteosat Second Generation satellite and allows to observe with great detail clouds approaching Northwestern Europe almost real-time.
