These images are provided by the GOES satellites. The wavelength
band is centered near 10 microns and shows cloud tops in the middle and
upper troposphere.
Some amount of cirrus could be present at higher altitudes which would
not show up in these images (this high altitude cirrus can be detected
with the 6.7 micron GOES image).
