A bright, wintery scene greeted NASA’s Aqua satellite as it passed over parts of New England on a sunny day in mid-February 2020.
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board that satellite acquired a true-color image of fresh snowfall on February 15. Snow swept across much of the United States in mid-February, with moderate amounts dropping across much of Upstate New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.
The snow fell along a reasonably well-demarcated line that left most of Connecticut, Rhode Island, and parts of New York, including Long Island and New York City snow-free.”
