The featured graphic is a comparison between the Suomi NPP / VIIRS satellite imagery between July 29th and August 11th. The particular band shown from the satellite is good at showing city lights during clear sky conditions at night time. The damage swath from the August 10th derecho is easily seen with the bullseye hit to Cedar Rapids well shown. Power restoration work is ongoing with full restoration expected to take weeks. See this NASA Website for a better view.
