NOAA's GOES-13 satellite captured this visible image of Post-Tropical Sandy rolling inland on Tuesday, Oct. 30 at 6:02 a.m. EDT. (1302 UTC). The National Hurricane Center said that as of 5 a.m. Tuesday, the storm was moving westward across Pennsylvania and was centered about 90 miles west of Philadelphia. It lost its hurricane status on Monday and is now considered an extratropical cyclone.

Can someone tell me how these pics are taken in total darkness? Are they enhanced to show the US and surrounding oceans?

there's no way that was a visible picture at 6am eastern. must be more like 9am (6 pacific).
At 6am EDT the entire storm was in darkness.

@J2008p there's a whole range of fancy imaging systems. If you think they are using camera film to take a satellite shot ... Oy vey.

The MODIS true-color images from NASA's "Blue Marble" global map are used as a background, projected as though viewed from the GOES satellite location. Semi-transparent layers of GOES infrared and visible images are enhanced and layered on top of that color background. The posted image is a composite mostly outside the visible spectrum.
