Two days later, on April 14th, this cyclone followed its predecessor and moved into the
Atlantic Ocean. The polar orbiter image (figure ) shows the location of the front. Note
that the cloud features are better resolved (sharper, more detailed) in the polar-orbiter
images than in the corresponding GOES image in figure. Images from the newest
GOES satellites will be higher resolution and will provide more detailed images. See
the chapter for more information.
