Snow from space: It’s been a while since a widespread snowstorm included our area. Also rather unusual: a great view of much of the snow stripe.

Snow cover is plentiful today from eastern Oklahoma through the central Mississippi Valley (which stands out quite impressively!), across Tennessee, the central Appalachians, then through the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. Another stripe of snow can be seen beneath high clouds from the central Plains of Kansas to the Great Lakes.
