Image of the Day – Snow Covered Great Britain
Overwhelming snow covered the majority of Great Britain domain in late January 2013, extending from London toward the northern tip of Scotland. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite caught this normal shading picture on January 26, 2013. Just some beach front zones and the southwestern piece of the island were liberated from snow when MODIS snapped this photo.
Skies had to a great extent cleared when MODIS took this picture, however a few mists waited in the west, throwing shadows onto the blanketed surface beneath.
