DescriptionSatellite Sees Remaining Northeast Snowfall, Connecticut Still Recovering (6309799542).jpg |
Last weekend's late October snow may have melted in Maryland, Delaware, parts of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, but residents in north central Connecticut are still dealing with the effects of the storm. According to Connecticut Light and Power, 430,868 residents were still without power today, Nov. 3, 2011. For estimated restoration times, visit their website at: www.cl-p.com/stormcenter/estimates/. A late October snowstorm from a Nor'easter blanketed the eastern U.S. from West Virginia to Maine and broke records the weekend before Halloween Monday. NASA's Aqua satellite flew over the region on October 30 after the snow was ending in New England and captured the ghostly blanket of white. When NASA's Aqua satellite passed over the northeastern U.S. on November 2, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. EDT, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument captured a detailed image of the remaining snowfall. Snow still covers the ground in western and central Connecticut, southeastern New York, western and central Massachusetts, and parts of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. Over the Atlantic, cirrocumulus clouds create a diagonal border. The image was created at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.
