At the top of the page is global map with sea temperatures, and tropical weather systems. In the Atlantic is hurricane Irene, two tropical waves, and a tropical depression.

Then info on each weather system.

At the bottom of the page is satellite imagery. You can what area to look at, and whether to see the visible or infrared image.
