Rare (? it seems to me) photo of a mostly cloud-free state of Alaska taken around 1pm AK time March 1st. Some highlights:
1. Sea ice around Nunivak & Nelson Island
2. Fire scars showing up as lighter areas around the Interior. Fairbanks roughly in center.
3. Shades of blue around the Kenai Peninsula.
