File:Cyclone Bondo 20 Dec 2006 0635Z.jpg
This photo-like image was acquired by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Terra satellite on December 20, 2006, at 9:35 a.m. local time (6:35 UTC), while the storm’s center was drawing in towards the Seychelles. The island of Madagascar appears to the southwest of the storm (lower left corner) where the outer rain bands from the storm were coming ashore. Bondo had well-defined spiral arms of rainclouds and thunderstorms at the time of this image, and a strong and clear cloud-filled (or “closed”) eye at its center.
The high-resolution image provided above is at MODIS’ full spatial resolution (level of detail) of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response System provides this image at additional resolutions.(Reusing this file)
