Comparative studies of Nimbus I and Nimbus II HRIR pictures over Southeast Asia with supporting surface and radar observations disclose that bright areas (cold temperatures) in HRIR pictures correspond to areas of precipitation revealed by radar and substantially agree with a rain index based on 12-hr rainfall reports from six stations. The Nimbus infrared pictures are significantly different from satellite daytime video pictures, however, and consequently require different interpretation.
