Satellite
Image, with totally clear skies showing the snow cover in our region.
This satellite image is from
December 8, 2005. There were no clouds in the photographed area.
Note the darker unfrozen lakes
in Kansas. The Platte river can be seen in Nebraska appearing as
a dark
curving line due to the lack
of ice and snow cover on the river. Lincoln and Omaha can be located
on
the image as slightly darker
areas due to the large number of streets and surface areas which have had
snow removed.
