Satellite Image, February 9, 2005.
The snow cover from several days of snow is evident on this image.
The western edge of the snow cover stretches from the northeast corner of Nebraska
to near McCook, Nebraska.  The unfrozen surface of the lakes in Kansas are evident as dark
areas surrounded by snow cover.  The Platte River is clearly evident as a dark curving line in
eastern Nebraska.  Both Lincoln and Omaha are also evident as darker areas (i.e. less snow
covered surface than the open rural areas).  The Missouri river north of the
South Dakota/Nebraska border is ice covered and white.
There is a small patch of clouds in south central Nebraska.
