The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) GOES-16 satellite recorded this amazing view of the snow storm that swept through the Great Lakes region this week.
#SATELLITE SPOTLIGHT: Today's visible loop from @NOAA's #GOES16🛰️ shows two interesting features. Snow left behind from this week's winter storm can be seen in places from the Great Lakes southward to the Appalachians. Rippling #WaveClouds are also visible in the Mid-Atlantic. pic.twitter.com/L36ACi9EiQ

Very cool (no pun intended). This makes it clear Michigan got kind of passed up by this storm -- bummer, if you like the snow.
Maybe next time! ⛄
Here’s something cool -- “supercool,” in fact -- captured by GOES on Nov. 20:
On Nov. 20, 2020, the #GOESEast 🛰️ captured today's #ImageOfTheDay showing a “supercool” phenomenon occurring within the clouds over Michigan. Here, we can see what are called fallstreak holes (AKA: hole punch clouds).
