Summary

[edit]
Description

NOAA/NASA image captured December 23, 2010 at 6:45 a.m. EST

Data from the GOES-13 and GOES-11 satellites were used to create a full image of the continental U.S. on Dec. 23 at 1145 UTC (6:45 a.m. EST) as travelers make their way across the country to their holiday destinations. The area clouds from the U.S. southwest stretching north are associated with a low pressure area over Colorado. The clouds over eastern New England are associated with a low already out to sea, and clouds moving into the Pacific Northwest are associated with an eastward moving cold front.
